Cristiano Ronaldois a preening poseur to many football supporters – albeit an extraordinarily talented one. But there can be no denying that he is also a besotted dad – as this picture shows.
The Real Madrid and Portugal superstar posted the photo of himself smiling alongside his son Cristiano Jr. on his official Twitter account as he continued his recovery from a thigh injury ahead of the World Cup.
The photo was captioned with the message: "Happy to spend Children's Day with my son."
Ronaldo missed Portugal's World Cup warm-up game against Greece and was badly missed, with the game finishing goalless.
He remains a doubt for their opening fixture in Brazil against Germany on Monday, June 16.
