AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi made it clear that it was Andriy Shevchenko's decision to leave for Chelsea last summer.

Berlusconi said, "If it were up to me, I would take him back straight away."

Shevchenko said he has no desire to leave the London club even though he has struggled for form in the Premier League.

The Ukraine international stated, "I've never thought once about going back to Milan."
