Milan captain Paolo Maldini has welcomed suggestions that Andriy Shevchenko could be on his way back to the Rossoneri.

The Ukraine star has failed to impress at Stamford Bridge following his £30 million transfer in the summer of 2006 and has scored only eight goals in 41 Premier League appearances.

After being relegated to the club’s reserves recently, there have been suggestions that a return to Milan could be on the cards for a player who scored a much more impressive 127 goals in 208 Serie A games.

And Maldini, who could well postpone his retirement and play another season at San Siro, would certainly welcome his former colleague back with open arms.

“At Milan there is always space for those who have done a lot,” explained Maldini. “There is always room for those who have left a mark on the club’s history.”

Midfielder Massimo Ambrosini also feels that Shevchenko would be a useful addition to a team that has lost Ronaldo to a long-term knee injury.

“We cannot decide these things,” said Ambrosini. “I can only say that Sheva is a friend and that we will welcome him with enthusiasm if he were to leave London.”

AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi insists a move for Ronaldinho is not on the club's agenda but admitted he still admires Andriy Shevchenko.

Milan are expected to rebuild an ageing team following a disappointing season in Serie A and a last 16 elimination at the hands of Arsenal in the Champions League.

And with Brazil striker Ronaldo out of action for several months with a knee injury, recruiting a forward is a priority for Milan.

Berlusconi is adamant, however, Barcelona playmaker Ronaldinho is not on their wish list.

"Ronaldinho has never been an aim of ours because we have always felt that he would not have been the ideal partner of players like Alexandre Pato and Kaka," he said.

However, Berlusconi refused to rule out a move for Chelsea striker Shevchenko.

Former Rossoneri favourite Shevchenko has struggled to make an impact at Stamford Bridge and Berlusconi, who is godfather to Shevchenko's eldest son Jordan, is thought to be keen on taking him back to the San Siro.

"I believe Milan must make a point of reinforcing its defensive line and also find a great forward, who is physically strong," said Berlusconi.

"Shevchenko is a player that is physically fit and who is still in our hearts and in those of the Rossoneri fans."

The Ukraine international became Milan's second all-time leading goalscorer in a glorious seven-year spell which ended in the summer of 2006 when he joined Chelsea for £30million.

Sounds like he's going after Drogba to me.

Milan's supporters staged a protest last night criticising the club's transfer policy and the possible return of Andriy Shevchenko.


The Ultra group Old Clan handed out leaflets to the crowd in and around the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza for Saturday's 3-1 victory over Cagliari.


It contained a list of seven complaints to the club after general manager Adriano Galliani pointed out the fans should not criticise Milan considering the last 20 years of silverware.


"The President is absent and no longer has the motivation or the desire to invest that he did before," was among the leaflet's statements.


"The only smart signing of the past three years has been Alexandre Pato. Enough of players on the downward slope of their careers and continual fitness problems.


"Ariedo Braida spent two weeks in South America scouting for talent and returned with the disappointing Leandro Grimi.


"The many season ticket holders have been taken for a ride by broken promises, a squad that is not up to the standard of Milan with great stars who instead joined the opposition."


The most forceful point was made against the possible return from Chelsea of former crowd favourite Shevchenko.


"We absolutely rule out Shevchenko, who is 32 and would fill the only non-EU slot, preventing Milan from signing a younger and better player."


In Italy clubs can only sign one non-EU player from a foreign League per season.
