It looks like Real Madrid legend Ronaldo has passed on his tremendous football skills to his son who is set to earn a cap for Brazil’s U18 side this month.

Ronald Nazario de Lima, Ronaldo’s first son, has been selected to represent Brazil at this year’s Maccabiah Games in Israel.

The Maccabiah games is the third-largest sporting event in the world, with 10,000 athletes set to take part from 85 countries.

Ronaldo – who has 118 caps for Brazil – posted a photo of the team at the airport before their flight to Jerusalem.

He wrote: “This is the Brazilian team representing the people in the World Macabbiah 2017. A special hug for my son Ronald Lima who is in the Under-18 soccer team. Good luck, guys! Go for it, Brazil!”
