Milan’s youth product Kingsley Boateng has admitted that he aspires to be like Alexandre Pato but is similar to his namesake Kevin-Prince Boateng in temperament.
The 18-year-old Ghanaian broke into the first team after netting a goal against Malmo in Milan’s preseason tour and is on the brink of pushing for a more permanent spot in the Milan set-up.
Talking to Milan Channel on Tuesday evening Boateng admitted that he aspires to be like his Brazilian teammate.
"I aspire to be like Pato, he is a great player and will soon prove his worth. My idol, though, is Prince Boateng, we are also very similar in temperament.â€
Boateng also touched on the most famous African to don the Rossoneri shirt George Weah: “Of him I remember the wonder goal against Verona, where he ran through the whole field alone.
“I would love to be like him as well.â€
