Jamie Redknapp took his youngest son Raphael, who he shares with model Frida Redknapp, to his first football session on Monday, and couldn't help but share an adorable video of the milestone with his followers.

Taking to Instagram, the father-of-three showed a clip, which you can see below, showing his toddler kicking the ball before scoring his first goal.

"First session today and he loved it," the proud dad wrote, before adding: "And we might have the first lefty Redknapp."

The former footballer then added a heart featuring the Swedish flag, clearly teasing his Swedish wife about which national team their son might play for one day.

Jamie is a father-of-three, and shares his eldest children, Charley, 18, and Beau, 14, with ex-wife Louise Redknapp.

While both of his eldest children are incredibly sporty, none of them have followed in Jamie's footsteps.

Charley is an avid rugby player and is currently living in America where he is studying a sports degree, but last year, Jamie candidly confessed that his dream was for him to play football, just like him.

In an interview with Project Footballer, he said: "My 17-year-old, I probably pushed him too much and I probably ended up pushing him away from football because I was so desperate for him to do it.

"I'd be like, 'Come out in the garden. Let's go do something', and he'd go, 'I don't really want to dad'. I'd reply, 'Why? Why don't you want to come out and play football?'. But why should he? Just because I played football, it doesn't make it right for him."

The 49-year-old went on to say that he "regrets" the way he was with Charley as he admitted that "everyone’s different".
