The youngster plays for the youth academy of his father's Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr.
He is eligible to represent several nations including Spain and the USA, but appears to be favouring Portugal with this call-up.
While he won't officially commit to a country until making a senior international appearance, Ronaldo Jr is following in his father's footsteps.
Ronaldo Sr represented Portugal's U15s nine times in 2001 before rapidly progressing through the youth ranks.

The 14-year-old was one of 22 teenagers listed to feature in the tournament by manager Joao Santos.
During an earlier training session with Portugal's U15s, Ronaldo Jr was spotted wearing CR7 Nike Mercurials as well as Kylian Mbappe's latest Nike boots.
Before joining Al-Nassr's youth setup, the 14-year-old was previously part of the youth academies at Real Madrid, Juventus and Manchester United.
These were all clubs where his father played during his illustrious career.

With the Al-Nassr superstar set to retire in the coming years, there will likely be pressure on Ronaldo Jr to follow his father's legendary path.
Despite turning 40 in February, Ronaldo has expressed interest in playing alongside his son one day.
"I would like it, I would like it. It's not something that keeps me awake at night but we'll see," the Ballon d'Or winner said recently.

Speaking about his son's future, Ronaldo added: "He will follow his path, his career. I will be a proud father, I will be proud of what he wants to do."
"If he plays, 'top'. If he doesn't play, we tried. At least his father tried. But it won't be a problem either, in my opinion."
