Star forward of the France national team Kylian Mbappe has once again highlighted his support for Serie A giants Milan, claiming that he watches every one of their league matches.
The recently departed Paris Saint-Germain forward was on Sardinia on Tuesday, specifically at the Hotel Cala di Volpe to pick up the Globe Soccer European Championship award.
While on Italian soil, Mbappe spoke to Sky Sport, discussing a number of topics including his latest accolade, his decision to leave PSG and his childhood love for Milan.
What Mbappe said about Milan
“I have always said that of I had to go to Italy one day, I would go to AC Milan,” Mbappe said.
“I have been a big AC Milan fan since I was a child, and I watch all their matches in Seire A,” he revealed.
The 25-year-old has made no secret of his love for the Rossoneri in recent years, telling numerous outlets that San Siro would be his destination of choice if he were to make the jump to Serie A at some stage of his career.
Mbappe’s mother, Fayza Lamari, has also supported those claims, insisting that when he came home from school or training, “he would only ever talk about Milan.”
