In the photo, Lamine Yamal and Ronaldo Jr. are seen affectionately with their arms around each other, posing together. Many commenters noted that Ronaldo’s son resembles Lamine Yamal. What caught people’s attention was that at just 14 years old, Ronaldo Jr. was already as tall as 17-year-old Lamine Yamal. A glance at their calves reveals that Ronaldo’s eldest son has a more muscular build than the Spanish football prodigy.

Ronaldo Jr.’s muscular physique is the result of regular workouts with his famous father since childhood. Born in 2010, he was quickly steered toward a football career like his dad’s.
