Cristiano Ronaldo and son Cristiano Jr show off their abs together but fans all spot shocking detail

CRISTIANO RONALDO is showing his son Cristiano Junior how to reach the elite level that made the Manchester United legend one of football's all-time greats.
Ronaldo, 40, won a raft of honours throughout his glittering 23-year career and one of his main secrets lies on his stunning fitness levels.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner has been prioritising his body from a young age and thus spends a lot of time on the gym while also adhering to a strict diet.
The Al-Nassr superstar's son Junior, 14, is following in his father's massive footsteps as he is currently playing for the Saudi giants' Under-15 side.
And thus Cristianinho has adopted all of his dad's fitness regime.
The pair have been working out a lot together and decided to show the results of their hard labour on camera as they flexed for a pic on Twitter.
Ronaldo added the following caption in the snap that showed them both looking shredded: "Like father like son."
But many fans pointed at something peculiar about that photo and stormed the comments' section.
CR7's supporters noticed that his teenage son is already taller than the super athlete, who stands at 1.87m.
One fan tweeted: "Hahaha son taller than you already lol."
Another commented: "Bro how's the lad taller than CR7."
A third wrote: "Even Ronaldo's son is taller than [Lionel] Messi."
New footage shows Cristiano Ronaldo's wild reaction to Portugal Nations League win as Man Utd star is 'used as shield'
This fan said: "@Grok make Ronaldo shorter."
And that one stated: "He's grown taller than you champ."
The same photo also highlighted Ronaldo's recent fashion statement that has seen him painting his toenails.
Junior has been following his father around the world and played for his club's youth sides.
The winger's career kicked off in 2021 as he spent a year with Juventus before linking up with Man Utd until his father's acrimonious departure in early 2023.
The forward also plays for Portugal's Under-15s where he put together some impressive performances.

Former Premier League football star 'is declared bankrupt' - but says at £2million mansion he had 'no idea' about legal ruling

A former Premier League footballer who has been declared bankrupt is insisting he had 'no idea' all his valuable assets could now be seized. Lee Clark, 52, an ex-midfielder for Newcastle United, Sunderland and Fulham, said yesterday from his £2m mansion that he was oblivious to the risks. This is despite his bank accounts and savings now being potentially earmarked to pay unsecured creditors, if the debt is not addressed. The petitioner was a finance firm called One Stop Business based in York. Mr Clark told the Mirror from his house in Jesmond, Newcastle: 'I have no idea. I have no comment to make I know nothing.' The former player made 200 appearances at Newcastle United before moving to Sunderland in 1997 after signing a £2.5million deal. But his decision to war a T-shirt bearing the slogan 'Sad Mackem B*****' at the 1999 FA Cup final angered a number of fans. He then moved to Fulham before a brief return to Newcastle. Following the end of his playing career in 2006, Mr Clark managed Huddersfield, Birmingham City and Blackpool, spending time in Sudan and Oman. His son, Bobby, went on to play for Liverpool before joining RB Salzburg. News of Mr Clark's financial situation comes after ex-football ace Trevor Sinclair also declared bankruptcy last week. Last year, the Mail revealed Mr Clark regretted wearing the 'Sad Mackem B****d' t-shirt that ended his Sunderland career. Speaking to Mail Sport, he said: 'Of course, I've got regrets. It was like biting the hand that feeds you. 'There were no camera phones then, just the old disposable ones and a few cameras clicked and it came out a few weeks later. It made my position at Sunderland untenable.'

'Gutted' West Coast Eagles stalwart Jeremy McGovern gets shocking news that has left fans reeling

A 'gutted' Jeremy McGovern will leave the AFL as a West Coast great after being forced into premature retirement through concussion. McGovern announced his 197-game career was over on Friday, with the decision made for the key defender by the AFL's concussion panel. The 2018 premiership player suffered a head knock in the Eagles' round-eight fixture against Melbourne and was referred to the panel after failing to recover following the mandatory 12-day period. Lauded as the intercept king, the 33-year-old etched himself into West Coast history with his famous mark in their 2018 grand final win. Overcoming internal bleeding in the lead-up to the eventual five-point victory, McGovern's quality shone through when he ditched his man - Collingwood star Jordan De Goey - to intercept Adam Treloar's kick inside-50. The move kickstarted the chain that ended in Dom Sheed's match-winning goal. The Eagles star helped lead the side to the 2018 grand final and AFL premiership before the club hit dark days He finished that season with 77 intercept marks, the most in 2018. 'It's been an absolute honour to pull on the West Coast jumper for the past 15 years and it's something that I will forever be grateful for,' McGovern said in a club statement. 'As much as this isn't the way I would have liked to go out, I respect the decision. 'I'm gutted I don't get to pull the jumper on and run out one more time, but sometimes this is the way the game goes.' McGovern arrived at the Eagles from North Albany with pick No.44 in the 2010 rookie draft. But it wasn't until mid-way through the 2014 season, at age 22, that McGovern earned his AFL debut under former coach Adam Simpson. The lynchpin of the Eagles defence, McGovern established himself in 2015 and earned four-straight All-Australian nods from 2016 to 2019. He ends his career as the club's reigning John Worsfold medallist and as a five-time All-Australian, having collected another blazer in 2024. McGovern and former coach Adam Simpson share a moment in the club's match against Collingwood in 2022 'To the club, I can't explain how much you have given me over my time here, and I can't thank you enough for drafting a fat kid from Albany and giving him a crack,' McGovern said. 'I've always loved the game and winning a premiership is every kid's dream, but the lifelong friendships and relationships you build through footy mean more to me than anything. 'I will forever be indebted to West Coast, and I will always bleed blue and gold.' McGovern's exit follows that of former West Coast teammate Luke Edwards, who stepped away from the game last October to focus on his recovery from multiple concussions. Collingwood duo Nathan Murphy and Josh Carmichael, Melbourne premiership player Angus Brayshaw and Western Bulldogs draftee Aiden O'Driscoll also had their careers cut short in 2024 because of concussion.

Bruno Fernandes given shock verdict despite Man Utd's worst-ever season

Bruno Fernandes was the only shining light in a dark season for Ruben Amorim's side, one which saw Manchester United finish the campaign down in 15th place Bruno Fernandes has been recognised by his fellow professionals – despite Manchester United's worst-ever Premier League campaign. United skipper Fernandes was the only shining light in a dark season for Ruben Amorim's side, one which saw them finish the campaign down in 15th place. ‌ The Red Devils lost 18 of their 38 Premier League games and failed to secure European football for only the second time in 35 years, after losing the Europa League final 1-0 to Tottenham. ‌ Despite such a shocking season, Fernandes has been honoured by his fellow professionals, with the 30-year-old making the six-man shortlist for the PFA Players' Player of the Year award. Fernandes is up against Liverpool duo Mo Salah and Alexis MacAllister, as well as Newcastle striker Alexander Isak, Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice and Chelsea forward Cole Palmer. United skipper Fernandes scored eight goals in 36 league appearances last season and 19 in all competitions. The award will be presented at a ceremony in Manchester on August 19. The last time a United player won the accolade was Wayne Rooney in 2010, with Manchester City and England forward Phil Foden the current holder. Fernandes considered leaving United this summer, after being approached by Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal over a move that would have trebled his current £300,000-a-week salary. But after discussing the potential move with his wife, Ana Pinho, Fernandes decided to reject the lucrative proposal and commit his future to United. ‌ "The president of Al Hilal called me a month ago to ask about the possibility of me moving there," said Fernandes. "I had to wait a while to think about the future. As I've always said, I would be willing to do it if United thought it was best to move on. I spoke with the coach, Ruben Amorim, who really tried to talk me out of it. " Manchester United said they didn't want to sell me. They said if I wanted to go I could, but they didn't need the money. From my side, it was a very ambitious proposal, the president was a fantastic person. I never talked about the money, it ended up coming up later, with my agent. ‌ "I had to make the decision as a family and understand what I wanted for my future. That was the question my wife asked, what my professional goals would be. At no point did she say yes or no, she always supported me and put my professional side first. "It was an easy move, even at a family level. I had Ruben Neves, Joao Cancelo. My children are used to playing with theirs. But I simply want to stay at the highest level, playing in the big competitions, because I still feel capable of that. "I want to continue to be happy and do what I love most. I'm still very passionate about this sport. It's my way of seeing football and I'm happy with my decision."
