Son of former AC Milan striker Patrick Kluivert, Justin Kluivert spoke ahead of Bournemouth's meeting against the European giants.

Justin Kluivert’s penalty put Bournemouth ahead as live Europa League updates tracked Lech Poznań vs Sunderland AFC standings and other matches.

Goals from Justin Kluivert, Marcus Tavernier and Amine Adli, combined with Mike Maignan's 28th-minute red card, gave AFC Bournemouth a historic 3-0 win over AC Milan in the UEFA Europa League.

Now, a new link has emerged, thanks to the mayor of Bournemouth. As Gazzetta dello Sport writes, Roberto Rocca was born in Milano, but moved to Bournemouth in 2013 and was appointed mayor in May. Speaking to BBC Radio, he admitted that he loved both clubs, as the report relays.

Bournemouth pulled off a sensational 3-0 home victory over 10-man AC Milan on Thursday to make it three wins from their opening three games in the Europa League.

The former forward prepares for the Europa League clash with his Bournemouth side and explains: "My dad has many fond memories of the Rossoneri fans. Scudetto? Roma will win it"

Justin Kluivert says it was an "amazing feeling" to reach the Europa League final in 2016-17 but now he would "really like to achieve" something similar with Bournemouth. The 27-year-old netted the Cherries' first-ever goal in European competition in a historic 2-1 win over Real Sociedad last month.
