Genoa coach Shevchenko preparing for emotional AC Milan clash

Genoa coach Andriy Shevchenko says he's now preparing to face former club AC Milan.

After their draw with Udinese, Genoa now meet Milan, where Shevchenko is regarded as a legend.

Asked about the looming clash, Sheva said: "What will it represent for me? This match has just ended, I haven't had the chance to think about it yet.

"It will certainly be a special match."

Shevchenko also revealed he's counting on Mattia Destro's return.

"I like him a lot. He has to recover, we are waiting for him: he has started training, he has to get into shape. The more solutions we have, the better it is for us."
