AC Milan face a huge next couple of games as they will battle Inter to reach the cup final and will travel to face a Lazio side with plenty to play for, and they will be without Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
MilanNews write how the decisive moments of a season are the Swede’s favourite moments because he always believes that he has the ability and experience to steer any side in their toughest patches, but the physical problems have been tormenting him in recent months and so Stefano Pioli has not had him available.
He will turn 41 in October which means Ibra certainly cannot be expected to play every game, the recent months have been more worrying than irritating. Zlatan played with good continuity until January, scoring 8 goals in the league, but since the Achilles issue sustained on January 23 against Juventus he has played just 31 minutes.
His most recent issue – the one that still keeps him out – is an overload of his left knee that means he will be mising at least until the end of the month. His absence is felt, while his body is sending out not so reassuring signals which could influence his thoughts on the future.
After this season he should REST!
Thanks Ibra for everything.
Milan is grateful.
Goodbye senior man. Let’s call a day Zlatan
Ibra is going to go out like a supernova , one last game winning goal to win the Scudetto……….then fade into oblivion…..quirky as hell , but when he enters the game you cannot help but feel “you gotta chance”
