London's "Chelsea" has once again made an attempt to get the Ukrainian forward of "Milan," Andriy Shevchenko, writes the Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport.
This time, Roman Abramovich's club increased its offer to the footballer himself. "Chelsea" offered Shevchenko a salary of 7 million pounds sterling (10.5 million euros), which is twice the money the footballer receives at the Italian club.
The offer to buy the forward for 82.5 million euros is already on the desk of "Milan" president Adriano Galliani, emphasizes Corriere dello Sport.
In the Italian and British media, after "Milan" acquired forwards Christian Vieri and Alberto Gilardino, there is increasingly frequent writing about the possible departure of Andriy Shevchenko from the ranks of the "rosso-neri." The Ukrainian forward himself has repeatedly stated his loyalty to "Milan" and rejected any possibility of transferring to another club.
