In recent years, it has been a regular joke that Kylian Mbappe could sign for AC Milan one day, due to him supporting the club and he’s reaffirmed that support.
Drawn against Inter in the Champions League, Milan were always going to be brought up in some way, shape or form. Mbappe has not hidden from the pictures of him as a child in a Milan shirt and it’s clear that he supports the club.

He’s even publicly admitted as much in the past. So, with a game against the Nerazzurri scheduled for tomorrow night, it was likely that he was going to be asked about that support and the chance to get one over on the Rossoneri’s rivals.
Mbappe reaffirms Milan love
Speaking to Sky Sport ahead of tomorrow’s game, via MilanNews, he was asked about the Ballon d’Or and Milan, with the striker offering a few words of interest.
“I definitely prefer AC Milan… But Inter are an opponent that deserves great respect. They’re a quality team.
“When I saw the draw, my mind immediately went to Thuram, since we’re very good friends. But they also have Lautaro, who is a striker capable of making the difference. Of course, I hope not in this case.
“Mourinho? A great motivator, he’s passing on the experience of many years of his career to the group. It’s a pleasure and a privilege to be coached by him. We’re all united, but we were last year too. Unfortunately, results don’t always come.
“Look at my France: we wanted to win the World Cup and instead we didn’t even manage to reach the final…
“The Ballon d’Or is a prestigious award that every footballer wants to win. I’m often asked if it’ll be my turn this time, even when I’m walking the streets of Madrid. And there are those who think I’m the best in the world…
“I think it’s a good year to win it, but I don’t know if the votes will ultimately prove me right.”
Diavolo fans would certainly like to see him score against Inter. They also wouldn’t mind seeing him in the famous red and black shirt one day, one would assume. Who knows if it will ever happen…
Why this article?Mbappe will never joint Ac Milan and any other team in Italy.Once we was big,but only was.We must think today and in future.Past is past.
Of course Mbappe can join us. Ethan Mbappe of course lol 😂. Both him and Bellingham 😎
