Cristiano Ronaldo would look to get his name on the scoresheet as Al-Nassr gear up to face the European giants.

WHAT HAPPENED? Ronaldo, currently playing for Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr, was on holiday in his native country with his family, and one of his children was spotted wearing a United shirt

WHAT THEY POSTED: Georgina Rodriguez posted the holiday snaps on Instagram, in which a PSG shirt was also on display.

THE GOSSIP: It's somewhat odd given his bitter departure from United at the beginning of the year that Ronaldo would allow one of his sons to be photographed in the club's shirt, but perhaps it shows that he harbours no ill will toward his former side

WHAT NEXT FOR RONALDO? Ronaldo is still playing at Al-Nassr, and his contract doesn't expire until 2025. He has scored 14 goals in the Saudi Pro League from 16 games.
