Adriano's Milan target
Adriano is hoping to make his comeback from injury in the second leg with Milan.
Adriano is hoping to make his comeback from injury in Internazionale's UEFA Champions League second leg against Milan.The Brazilian striker is recovering from a knee ligament injury he suffered against Sampdoria last month.
He has been ruled out of Wednesday's quarter final, first leg tie against Milan as he continues his rehabilitation from the injury.
But though the prolific forward is disappointed to miss the first leg, he is optimistic he will be fit for the second leg on April 12.
"My wish is to play in the second derby against Milan," said Adriano.
"I hope I can do that. I am working a lot for that and I want to play in that great game, for me and my team-mates that trust in me.
"I am sure that my team-mates are going to do their best in the first match but when you are injured it's an awful sensation because you would like to be there and not watching the match from the stands or on television.
"I have even missed two games with the national team so I hope to get recovered soon, first of all for playing for Inter as soon as possible and then for Brazil."
