Hope this isn’t taken down with the new rules but I was curious if there’s any players who supported a certain club but never actually ended up playing for that team.

The example that springs to mind is Zidane with Marseille. 🩵

Any others?

    Paul Merson and Peter Crouch never got the chance to play for Chelsea. Neither has Mbappe yet.

    I don’t know what Messi’s favourite team was (probably NOB?) but he never played in the Argentinian league, so probably him.

    Heard Pele actually grew up supporting Cardiff but his parents didn’t know wales was a country and wouldn’t let him leave to play in an oceanic animal.
