AC Milan great Weah: I asked Maldini about Timo before Juventus move

The American international has impressed this season under new Juve coach Thiago Motta.

Weah Snr recalled in La Repubblica: “I had spoken about Timo with (former Milan director Paolo) Maldini, there was a possibility of him going to Milan but that didn't materialise.

“When my son mentioned Juve to me, I told him not to hesitate for a moment. We discussed it with his mother and the agent and we all agreed: we couldn't say no to an opportunity that millions of children dream of, but which only a few have.

“Regardless of my support, this is the right team for him.”

Juve and Milan drew 0-0 at the San Siro stadium on Saturday.
