Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has insisted that he is now a supporter of Manchester City after switching his allegiance from following Liverpool. The 38-year-old NFL legend, who has been recently in the UK as his Packers' side faced off against the New York Giants in London, was quizzed on which 'soccer' team has his backing.
He had previously declared his admiration for former Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard during his playing days but says he now prefers City.
''City. They've been good to me, they've sent me a lot of kits, a lot of gear,'' responded Rodgers, prior to the NFL showdown at Tottenham Hotspur's stadium on Sunday.

''They played at Lambeau this year and I enjoy City. Honestly I got into it by watching the documentary about the team and enjoying the way Pep handled his team and his coaching staff. But I did enjoy Gerrard and the Reds for a while.''
Suffering a 27-22 defeat at the hands of the Giants, Rogers' long-awaited debut here in the UK was spoiled on the Packers' first visit. One jersey which was more popular than most was the green and yellow sporting his famous number 12, with the NFL’s reigning Most Valuable Player (MVP) unable to help his side avoid defeat.
