Paolo Maldini has sent a message to AC Milan, stating that the bond his family has with the club will never be broken.
There was a lot of speculation in the build-up to last night’s game against Genoa about whether Maldini would attend the 125th anniversary celebrations after being invited, and in the end he did not.
Nonetheless, with today officially marked a century and a quarter since the founding of the club, he wanted to publish a statement to make it clear to fans that he still feels very attached.
Posting on Instagram, the former captain said: “Happy birthday Ac Milan
for your 125th birthday! No one will ever be able to undermine your bond with the Maldini family, history is memory.”
The amount of players to respond with supportive messages includes Sandro Tonali, Theo Hernandez, Rafael Leao, Mike Maignan, Yacine Adli and Davide Calabria.
