Andriy Shevchenko will always be a beloved and legendary figure for Milan, holding a special place in the hearts of all Rossoneri fans and the club. Not simply for his brilliant displays during his playing days, but also for the bond created and cemented over time between the Shevchenko family and all components of the Milan family.

Following the news of the passing of Andriy’s father, Mr. Mykola Shevchenko, the whole of AC Milan and all of its fans send their condolences and thoughts to Andriy and the Shevchenko family. Mykola was always a key figure in Andriy’s career and was always close to everything and everyone surrounding the club.

The feeling was mutual, with the President Silvio Berlusconi himself visiting and at the bed-side of MyKola after his heart-surgery at the San Matteo Hospital in Pavia in the past. In this moment, the club joins the Shevchenko family in mourning the loss of MyKola.
