‘I support AC Milan, Juventus wanted me’ Atalanta stlarlet Kessié claims
You decided to take the penalty kick against Torino...
“The ball was close to Papu Gomez and I went there. He asked me if I was sure to kick it and I said yes. Paloschi came close to us too and told him to let me try.”
Gasperini, meantime, was shouting....
“I heard him, but I pretended nothing happened, otherwise Paloschi would have tried. I thought he was still cold because he had just entered the pitch and I am used to kick penalties. I have scored six out of six with my national team. I am not kicking it the next time, I’ll leave it to Papu or Paloschi. He’s a striker and needs to score”
Is it true that Juventus wanted to sign you?
“After the 2013 U-17 World Cup, even if I hadn’t even turned 18 at the time. When I was a child, however, I used to watch AC Milan mostly. Schevchenko, what a player.”
You’ve also been linked with joining AS Roma...
“No, I know nothing about AS Roma. I was close to joining Sunderland last summer, that’s true, but I chose Italy for their tactical philosophy.
