In the comments section, Amor was praised for raising the young man following his father’s 2017 death. Others claimed that Jordan was his dad Joost’s double over their shared dark hair and hazel eyes.
FOLLOWING IN FOOTSTEPS OF HIS FATHER?
Unlike Joost van der Westhuizen, the hazel-eyed boy has taken a different sporting path in soccer.
Having previously played for the Valencia youth academy as a goalkeeper, Jordan later joined the UK’s Reading Academy.
And he’s one step closer to his goal. According to Amor Vittone, Jordan is keen to one day play for his dream club, Liverpool.
Speaking to the learning platform Impaq – which helped him study abroad around his football ambitions – Jordan said of his favourite team: “The saying ‘You will never walk alone’ is a saying that is very close to my heart, and it is also Liverpool’s anthem that is why I support Liverpool in the Premier League.”

He added: “I believe whatever you do or wherever you go, you are never alone because God is with you.”
Apart from his love of soccer, Jordan is also a professional model, signed to the Ice Model Agency.
