AC Milan to wear commemorative Chapecoense kits

AC Milan faces Calabrian minnow Crotone on Sunday at the San Siro, and Vincenzo Montella's Rossoneri will pay tribute to disaster-stricken Brazilian side Chapecoense with a one-off kit.

The home strip will feature the Chapecoense crest on the shoulder and the words "FORCA CHAPE" on the back, according to a statement on Milan's website Friday.

AC Milan is the latest club to express its support and sympathies for the Brazilian side that climbed from the fourth tier to qualify for the Copa Sudamerica finals against Colombian giant Atletico Nacional.

The kits, which will only be worn for Sunday's Serie A tilt, will then be donated to the Brazilian club.
