Billy Costacurta says fellow AC Milan legend Paolo Maldini will be prepared to listen to any offer about returning.
The club's imminent new owners want Maldini to be involved, though the former defender is reluctant.
Costacurta told Sky Italia: "I know that Maldini has not yet heard from anyone, but I think it is fair on his part to listen to the proposal of Milan.
"Paolo will definitely listen to the proposal, but will not be a mascot, he certainly will not wave the flag around.
"But sure he will listen to the proposal."
