Colo-Colo captain Arturo Vidal may soon see his football legacy continue through his youngest son, Emiliano, who has been actively involved in the sport. Recently, the Chilean star shared a video of Emiliano practicing on Instagram Stories.

Vidal posted a short clip showing Emiliano taking a shot on goal during training. He captioned it, “Football day 😍 let’s go Emi-crack 👌🏼.”

It’s interesting to note that Vidal’s eldest son, 16-year-old Alonso, has taken a different route. Rather than pursuing football, he has a strong passion for drawing and is quite an artist—Arturo has proudly shared his work with fans.

Along with his two sons, the Chilean footballer is also raising his 11-year-old daughter, Elisabetta. Arturo frequently shares lighthearted moments with her, posting fun dance videos on TikTok.

All of Vidal’s children were born during his marriage to his ex-wife, Maria Teresa Matus. The couple divorced in 2019, and since then, Arturo has been in a relationship with fitness trainer Sonia Isaza.
