Cristiano Ronaldo may not be Santa Claus, but he certainly made Marcelo's son, Liam Alves Vieira's, Christmas wish come true with a heartfelt gift.

Ronaldo and Marcelo's bond extends beyond the football field, and despite taking different paths after their time at Real Madrid, their friendship remains strong.

Their chemistry, both on and off the pitch, was exceptional. Marcelo's attacking flair on the left wing perfectly complemented Ronaldo's playing style.

Ronaldo and Marcelo's beautiful bond

Their partnership at Real Madrid was not just about winning trophies; it was a beautiful connection that made their success even more special.

Throughout their time together, the marauding Brazilian full-back assisted Ronaldo an impressive 25 times, per All Fotball, often providing exquisite crosses that the Portuguese converted with his signature towering headers.

Even though they now play for different clubs, with Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia's Al-Nassr and Marcelo back at Fluminese, their brotherly bond endures.

This Christmas, their enduring friendship was showcased when the 38-year-old, in a touching gesture, gifted Marcelo's son a priceless present, as cited by Essentially Sports.

Alves Vieira, Marcelo's eight-year-old son, delighted his Instagram followers by sharing a photo of himself donning CR7's Al-Nassr jersey, signed by the football icon, standing behind a beautifully adorned Christmas tree.

With gratitude, he captioned the post, “Thank you so much Cris, I love you. You are my idol."
