Milan - Milan legend Andriy Shevchenko revealed, Krzysztof Piatek deserves the number 9 jersey of AC Milan. Will Piatek be able to break the number curse?

Starting in the 2019/2020 season, the Polish striker uses number 9. Piatek abandoned the number 19 that he used in the spring after being recruited from Genoa on the January exchange.

Piatek has proven himself as a top striker in Serie A after posting a total of 30 goals throughout 2018/19. While in Milan, the 24-year-old chosen player appeared promising by packing 11 goals in 21 league appearances.

Now Piatek will use the 'sacred' number. In Milan, number 9 had used deadly strikers in his day like Filippo Inzaghi, George Weah, and Marco van Basten.

Even so, since Inzaghi there is no number 9 Milan player who tends to be successful. Starting from Alessandre Pato, Fernando Torres, Gonzalo Higuain to the last carried Andre Silva.

"He is definitely worthy of the number 9 jersey," Shevchenko told Gazzetta dello Sport. "The way he entered Milan, his naturalness, the important goals he had printed."

"It's important now and right now. Kris must also be responsible for what's important."
