AC Milan hero Andriy Shevchenko is happy seeing Krzysztof Piatek take his old No9 shirt.

The Ukraine coach says the Pole deserves it.

Sheva said, He made a great impact and now it's right that Kris also takes responsibility for such an important shirt.

It's not just a matter of wearing certain shirts. The history of Milan itself is beautiful but, at the same time, difficult to wear on your skin.

This is demonstrated by the attachment of the fans: results haven't been the same as before, yet I saw thousands of people flock to Milanello for the first day of preseason. They're incredibly passionate."
