Will’s trip to England has been explained by the actor as a recruitment trip to find talent for his $1 Billion worth team. Will, on his trip, made an appearance on Sky Sports ahead of the Premier League clash between Manchester City and Aston Villa.
Will Ferrell makes a shocking revelation
During a recent appearance on Sky Sports, Ferrell was asked about watching soccer. To which Ferrell replied, “I watch a fair amount”. In the past, Ferrell has been seen wearing a Chelsea jersey and even met with the team in 2017. This led many to believe that the Hollywood star was a Chelsea fan.

However, Ferrell shocked many by revealing that he is not actually a Chelsea supporter. “I have to say I don’t really have a side over here, I just enjoy following all the storylines and it’s obviously a very good league,” he said.
While Ferrell may not have a favorite team in the Premier League, he did express his admiration for the league as a whole. “I’m going to go out on a limb and say there’s some really good teams and players here,” Will added. Despite his lack of allegiance to any particular team, Ferrell at least has made it clear that he is loyal to his MLS side.

It is evident that Aubameyang still wants to continue playing in Europe. He doesn’t feel like moving to the MLS yet. This certainly is a heavy blow to LAFC, who were hoping to sign Aubameyang. It remains to be seen where Aubameyang will end up next season.
