Shevchenko will not leave Chelsea, say Milan

Chelsea are not willing to sell Andriy Shevchenko this summer, according to AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani.

The Rossoneri are reportedly interested in trying to lure the Ukrainian back to the San Siro just 12 months after he left for Chelsea in a £30million deal.

But Galliani has admitted the Barclays Premiership club are not interested.

He said: "Sheva was transferred a year ago for an important amount of money and I don't think Chelsea will be willing to sell him 12 months later.

"In fact, 15 days ago, (Chelsea chief executive) Peter Kenyon came to Milan's headquarters and told me that Shevchenko is not for sale. He also will not arrive on loan.

"Sheva is part of the history of Milan and he is saddened to have left. Has he (Shevchenko) told me that he regrets it? I will not answer that."
