Shevchenko discusses emotional Milanello return, Leao's role, Allegri and Modric
"It's beautiful, I felt something in my stomach. I haven't been here in four or five years. It was great to see the team and Coach Allegri. I also went to see the youth academy, I even saw Tassotti. I see Milan winning and that makes me feel good."
"I found him energised, cheerful, and positive, and it really makes me believe that Milan can do it; they're on the right path. The team is working and moving, we need to try and put pressure on Inter."
"He's a great player, he's always impressed me with his humility. He has great character, he's a leader. I asked him how he felt in Milan and if he settled in well, and he replied that he's happy and that the AC Milan fans are special."
"He's struggling, but he's making himself available; he needs to adapt to a role that isn't his own. It will take time to understand if he's suited to it. He, like others, is giving his all and performing well."
Andriy Shevchenko returned to AC Milan's training ground for the first time in several years while in Milan for the 2026 World Legends Padel Tour. He greeted squad members including Rafael Leao, Luka Modric, manager Massimiliano Allegri, and youth academy staff. Shevchenko expressed emotional satisfaction with the visit and praised Allegri's energized demeanor, believing Milan is on the right path to challenge Inter for the Scudetto. He commended Modric's humility and leadership, noting the midfielder's happiness at Milan and appreciation for the fans. Regarding Leao, Shevchenko acknowledged the player's adaptation to a new role, recognizing his commitment despite the position not naturally suiting his characteristics.
