Early life
Shevchenko was born in
Club career
Dynamo Kyiv
In 1986, Shevchenko failed a dribbling test for entrance to a specialist sports school in Kyiv, but happened to catch the eye of a Dynamo Kyiv scout while playing in a youth tournament, and was thus brought to the club. Four years later, Shevchenko was on the Dynamo under-14 team for the Ian Rush Cup (now the Welsh Super Cup); he finished as the tournament's top scorer and was awarded a pair of Rush's boots as a prize by the then-Liverpool player.[24]
Shevchenko started out his professional career at age 16 when he came on for only 12 minutes as a substitute in a 0–2 home loss to the Odesa second team
He made his
AC Milan
In 1999, Shevchenko joined Italian club
Despite netting only five times in 24 matches, mainly due to injuries, Shevchenko became the first Ukrainian-born player to win the Champions League after Milan lifted their sixth trophy in
He scored 17 goals in the
On 8 February 2006, Shevchenko became Milan's second highest all-time goalscorer, behind Gunnar Nordahl, after netting against
Chelsea
During the summer of 2005, there were persistent reports that Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich offered a record sum €73 million and striker Hernán Crespo to Milan in exchange for Shevchenko.[42] Milan refused the monetary offer but took Crespo on loan. Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon was quoted as saying, "I think Shevchenko is the type of player we would like. At the end of the day to improve what we have got, it has to be a great player and Shevchenko certainly comes into that class."[43] Shevchenko cited that the persistence of Abramovich was a key factor in his move.[44] Milan, desperate to keep the striker, offered Shevchenko a six-year contract extension.[45]
On 28 May 2006, Shevchenko left Milan for Chelsea for £30.8 million (€43.875 million[46][47]), topping Michael Essien's transfer fee from the previous year and also breaking the record for a player signed by an English club.[48] He received the number seven shirt, as Chelsea manager José Mourinho said that Shevchenko could continue wearing it.[49]
Shevchenko made his debut for Chelsea on 13 August 2006 in the
Shevchenko was handed his first start of the
Loan to AC Milan
Shevchenko was not used very often in the starting line-up at Chelsea, and with the appointment of Luiz Felipe Scolari, he was deemed surplus to requirements. Due to this, Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani offered to take Shevchenko back to the San Siro and Shevchenko was loaned back to his old club for the 2008–09 season.[53]
Shevchenko failed to score any league goals and only scored 2 goals in 26 appearances, starting only nine of those games. He returned to Chelsea for the final year of his four-year contract, where he was joined by his former Milan manager Carlo Ancelotti.[54]
Departure
Shevchenko was not even on the bench for Chelsea's penalty shoot-out victory over Manchester United at Wembley at the weekend in the season-opening Community Shield.[7] After making a late appearance for Chelsea in their second game of the 2009–10 season, Ancelotti announced that Shevchenko would be likely to leave Chelsea before the summer transfer window closed.[55] Despite this, Ancelotti said it had nothing to do with his decision to leave Shevchenko out of Chelsea's 2009–10 Champions League squad, but just to continue playing first-team football.[56]
Return to Dynamo Kyiv
On 28 August 2009, Shevchenko signed a two-year deal at his former club Dynamo Kyiv
On 28 July 2012, Shevchenko announced that he was quitting football for politics.[13]
International career
Shevchenko achieved 111 caps and scored 48 goals for the Ukraine national team, whom he represented at the 2006 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2012. He earned his first cap in 1995 and scored his first international goal in May 1996 in a friendly against Turkey.[citation needed]
During qualification for the 1998 World Cup, Shevchenko scored three times as Ukraine finished second in Group G to earn a place in the play-offs. Ukraine were knocked out 3–1 on aggregate by Croatia, the team who would go on to finish third in the finals, with Shevchenko scoring Ukraine's goal in the home leg.[citation needed]
Ukraine performed similarly impressively in UEFA Euro 2000 qualifying, again making the play-offs after finishing one point behind World Champions France in Group 4. However, the team again failed at the play-off stage, losing to underdogs Slovenia. Overall, Shevchenko scored four times for Ukraine during their Euro 2000 qualifying campaign.[citation needed]
In March 2000, Dynamo manager
Shevchenko scored six goals in qualifying for the 2006 World Cup, to take his country to its first ever major tournament. He captained the team at the finals and scored in Ukraine's first ever World Cup win, a 4–0 defeat of Saudi Arabia.[60] He then scored the winning goal from a penalty kick as Ukraine beat Tunisia 1–0[61] to qualify for the second round where, despite Shevchenko failing with their first kick, Ukraine knocked out Switzerland on penalties.[62] Ukraine were then beaten 3–0 by eventual champions Italy at the quarter-final stage.[63]
After only playing two games for Milan in the 2008–09 season, Shevchenko was still the first choice for Ukraine, and he scored an equaliser in an 2010 World Cup qualifying match against England at Wembley Stadium. Ukraine, however, went on to lose the game 2–1 after his former Chelsea teammate John Terry scored from a free kick delivered by David Beckham.[citation needed]
