The mother of Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo says her grandson has the potential to be even better than his father.

Dolores Aveiro has almighty expectations for Cristiano 'Cristianinho' Ronaldo Jr to reach the same heights his father has and is desperate for the 11-year-old to play for Sporting Lisbon in the future.

"Ronaldo has to come back here [to Sporting], for me he'd be here," Aveiro said on the ADN de Leao podcast. "He likes to watch Sporting's games. I've already told him: 'Son, before I die I want to see you return to Sporting'.

"'Let's see...', he said, but if it isn't [him], it's Cristianinho!

"At his age, he plays better than Ronaldo. At the time, Ronaldo didn't have a coach, but today Ronaldo is his son's teacher."
