Niang reveals: “Pato at Milan blew me away; not even Mbappé did things like that – he had thighs that were terrifying. Let me tell you a behind-the-scenes story about Galliani”

He then spoke of a player who absolutely blew him away during his time at Milan: “At Milan, there was Robinho, there was Inzaghi, and Gattuso too. But the lad who really blew me away – it’s a shame he was often injured – was Pato. From what I saw of Pato, not even Mbappé does those things. And we’re talking about Mbappé. Right foot, left foot, strength, headers, powerful… He had thighs that were terrifying. Your two thighs put together were just one of his. And he was fast. He had a lot of physical problems, though, but he was just too good.”
