Injured Pato named in Milan squad

AC Milan have named Alexandre Pato in their 22-man squad for Wednesday's Champions League last-16 return leg at Manchester United.

The Brazil international missed Saturday's goalless draw at Roma having sustained a hamstring strain the previous weekend.

Pato will travel to England but whether the South American striker will be fit to play remains to be seen.

Milan must overturn a 3-2 deficit if they are to progress to the quarter-finals of Europe's elite club competition.

Pato has been in superb form for Milan this season, scoring 12 goals in Serie A and two in the Champions League.
