ANDRIY SHEVCHENKO believes Alexandre Pato can succeed him.
AC Milan Vice President and Owner Silvio Berlusconi often claim that Pato is the future of Milan, and so legendary Milan striker Shevchenko, thinks the Brazilian is his heir.
“Pato is my heir,” said the Ukraine on Wednesday in a long interview with Italian sports daily il Corriere dello Sport.
Milan in the national teams: The results
Moggi: ‘Milan can win the Scudetto because…’
“He’s a champion and is maturing. He, Ronaldinho, Robinho and Ibrahimovic can play together. Friends of mine from Milanello say [Coach Massimiliano] Allegri is doing a magnificent job.”
Sheva, who handed Pato the No. 7 shirt, is one of the best players in the history of Milan, a true legend. The 33-year-old scored 127 goals in 226 matches for the Rossoneri.

Gosh!! I miss Sheva!! Hope he’d ended his career like Pippo at Milan!
His move to Chelsea was the worst decision in his life. We could have desperately used him recently. He is only 33 and in reality is still in good shape. We could’ve used Sheva and Pato as our forwards and have Ronnie behind them. That would’ve been amazing. Look at Drogba. An oldie and still the PL’s top scorer. Sheva should’ve stayed. Nothing was wrong with him. Kaka at least was injury prone.
The picture of Sheva in the red and black with the Captain Arm Band almost made me cry
lets hope pato never leave us.. :(
Yeah, i agree NSR. Sheva and Kaka left Milan, and what they got? a benchwarmer. Hope Pato never leave us for a long-long time. Forza Milan!
YeS, I miss Sheva…
I really miss that pose in the picture of sheva! everytime he score he’ll punch the air like that =(
We’ll see a lot of celebration with heart <3 symbol…
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
i think we all miss sheva and i hope he will return to milan in a sort of coaching role.
but still i saw him playing against Ajax and he played a descent match so if he was at Milan maybe he could be like Pippo a SUPER-sub
