Chelsea ready to send Shevchenko away
Chelsea are prepared to send striker Andriy Shevchenko away on-loan.
The Sun says Sheva's former club AC Milan is the most likely destination - but Blues boss Jose Mourinho will let the Ukrainian switch only after the club have secured a replacement for the £30million flop.
Mourinho has lost patience with Shevchenko, 30, who has bagged just three Premiership goals this term - costing £10m apiece.
Officials in Milan have indicated they would welcome Sheva back with open arms.
The Italian club would also be prepared to pay his salary for the six-month loan spell, which would be granted by Chelsea for 'personal reasons.'
Sheva's wife Kristin is said to be struggling to settle in England with their two small children and a return to Italy - where the Ukrainian spent seven years - would ease the pressure.
But a permanent move would not be on the table as Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is hopeful 68-cap Sheva will want to return next season and prove himself.
