Andriy Shevchenko keen to manage AC Milan

Former AC Milan striker Andriy Shevchenko has revealed that he would like to manage the Italian club one day.

The 37-year-old, who retired from playing last year, enjoyed a successful seven-year spell at the San Siro from 1999 to 2006.

"Now is a moment of transition, I am studying," La Gazzetta dello Sport quotes him as saying.

"I'm preparing for the future, certainly coaching Milan or Ukraine's national team would be ideal for me."

Shevchenko scored 48 goals in 111 appearances for Ukraine during his international career.
