Link ... Cristiano Ronaldo, left, and Lionel Messi
A BIZARRE coincidence involving two of the world’s greatest footballers and their sons was revealed by fans on Twitter last night.
Portuguese Real Madrid winger Cristiano Ronaldo is 869 days older than Argentina and Barcelona magician Lionel Messi.
But astonishingly, Ronaldo’s son — Cristiano Ronaldo Junior — is ALSO 869 days older than 25-year-old Messi’s lad, Thiago.
Messi’s girlfriend Antonella Roccuzzo gave birth to their lad on Friday while Ronaldo Junior arrived on June 17, 2010.
Last night fans drew attention to the facts on Twitter.
Daz McNally wrote: “Ronaldo and Lionel Messi were born 869 days apart, and their sons (CR Jr + Thiago) were also 869 days apart. How amazing is that?”
Ronaldo, 27 — born on February 5, 1985 — has sole custody of his son after a mystery mum gave birth to him.
Portuguese media claim he paid a US surrogate.
Messi was born on June 24, 1987.
