The Frequent Traveller is all about traveling in style. The great soccer stars of today are, in a certain way, “frequent travelers” in their own right. After all, it is not uncommon for a professional soccer player to play in a wide variety of countries during his career. There are a lot of reasons for a change of club. Mostly these are of a sporting or financial nature. But a change of scenery can also be the deciding factor for a transfer. Who wouldn’t prefer Paris, Milan or Madrid to Gelsenkirchen, Wolfsburg or Dortmund?? We show where the most appealing destinations for professional soccer players are – from both a sporting and cultural perspective. These are the cities where soccer stars live..
Soccer and fashion metropolis Milan
“Milan or Madrid – the main thing is Italy”. Andreas Moller immortalized himself in the annals of German soccer with this saying. In fact, the Italian Serie A, above all the two traditional Milanese clubs AC and Inter, was the non plus ultra in European soccer. But it is not only because of the strong league that Italy is still very popular among professional soccer players today. This is especially true for Milan. Even though the two clubs have had a difficult time in recent years, the attraction has remained unbroken. This may be due in no small part to the wonderful city. Milan is one of the country’s most important cultural, financial and fashion capitals. Numerous historical monuments and works of art attract millions of tourists year after year. It is clear that even as a professional soccer player you can enjoy the dolce vita here.
