'I would like to go back to Europe, Milan would be nice' - Pato expresses desire to return to San Siro

The 30-year-old is determined to help Sao Paulo win the Copa Libertadores, but wants to retrace his steps at some point in the near future

Alexandre Pato has revealed that he would "like to go back to Europe", admitting that a return to Milan would be "very nice" after he calls time on his spell in South America.

Pato reportedly paid €2.5 million (£2.2m) to release himself from a contract with Chinese outfit Tianjin Quanjian in March 2019, before putting pen to paper on a three-and-a-half-year contract with Sao Paulo.

The 30-year-old has since scored six goals in 24 appearances across all competitions for the Brazilian club, and continues to enjoy a cult status among supporters despite failing to deliver the goods in front of goal on a consistent basis.
