Andriy Shevchenko Delighted by Milan's Upturn in Form & Claims Juventus Can Win Champions League

Ukraine's national team manager Andriy Shevchenko has admitted he's delighted to see former club Milan back amongst the top sides in Italy and believes Juventus can win this season's Champions League.

The former striker netted 175 goals in 226 games for the Rossoneri during his eight years at the club across two spells, helping them win a Champions League and Serie A title.

Shevchenko, who is preparing his Ukraine side for their Euro 2020 qualifier against Luxembourg on Monday, insisted that it's pleasing to see Milan - who currently occupy the final Champions League qualification place - on the up once again, as well as singling out January signing Krzysztof Piatek for individual praise.
