Zlatan Ibrahimovic will make his first start in over a year tonight and since Theo Hernandez is out due to the flu, the 41-year-old will get to wear the captain’s armband.
Ibrahimovic has fully recovered from his knee surgery and after two appearances off the bench, he will now play from start. It will be his first start since January of last year, when he started against Juventus.
As confirmed by Milan on their official Twitter, the Swede will also wear the captain’s armband this evening. Theo Hernandez has done it in Davide Calabria’s absence, but he’s out with the flu tonight.
