Footballer Cristiano Ronaldo has revealed on his facebook that he has fathered a son, according to a report.

Now magazine reports that the Real Madrid player has plans to bring up the baby without the help of the mother who remains unnamed. The hunk is currently dating Russian underwear model Irana Shayk and it is being speculated that the baby boy was born in June.

The world’s most expensive footballer posted on his facebook page: "It is with great joy and emotion that I inform I have recently become father to a baby boy.

"As agreed with the baby's mother, who prefers to have her identity kept confidential, my son will be under my exclusive guardianship."

"No further information will be provided on this subject and I request everyone to fully respect my right to privacy (and that of the child) at least on issues as personal as these are."

Last night Ronaldo’s agent confirmed the story saying: "Yes, it's true. We make no further comment."

It is understood that the baby is currently in Portugal with Ronaldo’s mother Dolores.
