Cristiano Ronaldo's son called up to Portugal U17 for first time

The 16-year-old has been called up to Portugal's U17 squad for Euro 2027 qualifiers against Andorra, Bulgaria and Serbia in November.

Cristiano Ronaldo Jr has been selected for Portugal's U17 squad for the first time, continuing his progression through the national team's youth categories. The 16-year-old forward will compete in three Euro 2027 qualifying matches under coach Filipe Ramos against Andorra (11 November), Bulgaria (14 November) and Serbia (17 November), all hosted at the Football City near Lisbon.

Cristiano Jr made his youth debut with Portugal's U15s on 13 May 2025, was promoted to the U16s in late October with his first appearance on 30 October, and has since earned eight additional U16 caps, scoring three goals. He trains alongside his father at Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia.
