The Diario de Noticias newspaper has reported that the Real Madrid star, 25, had his baby son conceived via a surrogate mum at the end of last summer in San Diego where he was on holiday. The baby was born on June 17 during the World Cup.

It is also believed that Ronaldo allegedly travelled to Algarve to meet his son as soon as his team, Portugal, were knocked out of the tournament.
