For the second consecutive year…

The New Year is just around the corner, which means that people from all around the world will be jetting to Dubai to celebrate. This includes renowned footballer Cristiano Ronaldo and his family, who are currently vacationing alongside HH Sheikh Hamdan.

With the Italian league on break for the holidays, Ronaldo jetted to Dubai for Christmas. His vacation included meeting up with his friend and Crown Prince of Dubai, Sheikh Hamdan. The two met at the luxurious Bulgari Hotel in Jumeirah, where they posed for a photo together along with the footballer’s eldest son, Cristiano Jr.

Ronaldo posted the photo on his Instagram, captioning it: “Always great to see you my friend” and tagging Sheikh Hamdan. Meanwhile, the royal also posted the same picture on his account, writing: “It was great catching up with you! @cristiano I wish you the best of luck.”

He may be on vacation, but Ronaldo’s training never stops and the footballer took advantage of Dubai’s great facilities. He posted a video of him running in the pool. His training session also included hitting the gym with tennis player Novak Djokovic, as Cristiano attempted to teach him his infamous jump.

It seems like Dubai holds a special place in the 34-year-old’s heart, as this is the second time that he chooses to spend his winter holidays here. Last year, the footballer and his family rang in the New Year at Burj Al Arab, days later he met with his friend, Sheikh Hamdan, posing for a selfie together.
