YouTuber IShowSpeed trains with Cristiano Ronaldo Jr at Al-Nassr academy
Earlier this week, IShowSpeed was spotted meeting Lionel Messi-led Inter Miami while sporting a Ronaldo shirt
YouTuber IShowSpeed, whose real name is Darren Jason Watkins Jr, was recently seen attending the friendly Riyadh Cup encounter between Al-Nassr and Inter Miami.
The American social media sensation, who is known to be a die-hard fan of the soccer pro Cristiano Ronaldo, was later spotted at Al-Nassr's academy catching up with the Portuguese star's son, Cristiano Ronaldo Jr.
The eldest son of Google's "most searched athlete" officially joined Al-Nassr's Under 13 side in October last year.
Following his father's footsteps, he took the No. 7 shirt in the academy side and has become an integral part of the Riyadh-based club's youth team.
Earlier, IShowSpeed posted a photo of himself training alongside Ronaldo's son signalling his growing bond with Ronaldo's family.
The 19-year-old YouTuber went viral for his reaction when he met his idol last year after Portugal's home Euro 2024 qualifier match vs. Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Earlier this week, he was spotted meeting Lionel Messi-led Inter Miami's Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets and the rest of the team while sporting a Ronaldo shirt.
The legendary footballer, who turns 39 on Monday, will be next seen in action against Al-Hilal in a friendly fixture on February 8.
Then, next week, the team is expected to return to competitive action in the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Champions League on February 14 against Al-Feiha.
