Ukraine coach Shevchenko keen on AC Milan return; urges Juventus to stick with Pirlo

Ukraine coach Andriy Shevchenko has opened the door to a return to AC Milan.

Shevchenko was a legend as he led the line for Milan.

“Milan is my home and I'd like to return. If I ever have a chance, I'll make the most of it," the 44-year-old told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“We are talking about the future. Right now, I am focused on Ukraine and Pioli must earn a Champions League spot.

“I support Milan and I hope they will finish in the top four, but Atalanta are a solid team. It's a tough game."

Asked about Andrea Pirlo's future at Juventus, Shevchenko urged patience.

“I am not the Juventus president, so I don't know. Andrea is young and needs time. He's faced difficulties during the season, but in the Coppa Italia he proved he can achieve results."
