Flamengo whizkid Vinicius Junior was able to meet with Cristiano Ronaldo during his visit to parent club Real Madrid.

The young Brazilian forward was keen to record the moment for posterity and posed for a photograph with the Real Madrid No.7 and uploaded the result on his Instagram account along with a message hailing CR7:

"The best in the world!" written in Portuguese, English and Spanish.

The Flamengo star, who signed for Real Madrid for 45 million euros last May, is spending a few days in the Spanish capital to get to know the city, the club and it's installations. He watched El Clásico live from the VIP lounge at the Bernabéu.
