CorSport: Cardinale wants Ibrahimovic to have a role at Milan and Pioli approves

AC Milan owner Gerry Cardinale really is thinking about the idea of bringing Zlatan Ibrahimovic back to the club, according to a report.

The double sacking of Ricky Massara and Paolo Maldini by Carinale took away some certainties from the Rossoneri fans who in the space of a few days had to say goodbye to three key figures from their recent past, given Ibrahimovic’s retirement.

According to Corriere dello Sport (via SempreMilan.it) however, Cardinale’s intention would appear to be to bring the Swede back to the club by offering him a role close to the team, as a sort of go-between for the squad and the management.

This is a move that has also been given approval by Stefano Pioli, who has repeatedly mentioned the importance of the mere presence of Zlatan in the dressing room.

However, the idea is perhaps not really appealing to Ibrahimovic himself who – according to what Scaroni said in the morning – seems oriented towards taking a sabbatical period.
