Weah admits speaking with AC Milan before Juventus signed Timothy

AC Milan great George Weah admits he's a Juventus fan.

Weah's son Timothy is now a Juve player.

He told Il Giornale: “I loved Milan and their fans. I remain a Milanista, but I support Juventus. Is it possible?

“We spoke with (Paolo) Maldini before Juventus came for Timothy. It seemed that he was interested in signing him from Lille, but nothing came of it."

On Maldini's sacking as Milan sporting director, Weah also said: “I'm sorry for how he was treated, but there isn't always respect for history and Paolo was the history of Milan. And even as a director, I think he did good things. He won the last Scudetto, no?"
