'Very good, very nice!' - Half-naked Cristiano Ronaldo takes plunge into freezing water on winter holiday as teenage son refuses to join CR7 in mini pool
Cristiano Ronaldo braved the freezing cold water as he went for a dip in an outdoor pool while enjoying a family getaway this Christmas.
A half-naked Ronaldo stepped out into a winter wonderland as he took in the thick snow that surrounded his cabin in Lapland. The 39-year-old then eased his way down a ladder and into the cold water.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Ronaldo's teenage son was standing at the side and properly warmed up to fight off the cold as he watched the Portuguese icon battle through the low temperatures. Despite the Al-Nassr star's attempts to lure him in by saying it was "very nice", Cristiano Junior was in no mood to join him.
DID YOU KNOW?
Ronaldo has had a lengthy break as Al-Nassr have not played since December 6. The defeat to Al-Ittihad that day saw his side fall to fourth place in the Saudi Pro League 11 points behind Karim Benzema and Co. Failure to finish in the top three means they will miss out on a place in the AFC Champions League Elite league stage next season.

WHAT NEXT?
Ronaldo is keeping himself in good shape ahead of his side's return, with their 2025 kicking off with a home game against Al-Okhdood on January 9.
