The Ukrainian legend wants the Rossoneri number 7 and he has already held talks with Paolo Maldini who would gladly do a favor to a longtime friend reports Calciomercato.
Contacts between the two clubs continue and AC Milan aim to earn recoup 7 million euros after spending €21 million for his purchase in 2018.
