Emergency Call For Zlatan

JAKARTA - AC Milan confirmed the news of Zlatan Ibrahimovic's return to the club nicknamed the Rossoneri. Of course, the presence of the Swedish striker is expected to be able to lift Milan's performance which this season has transformed into a "mid-table club" in the Italian Serie A.

Previously, Ibrahimovic had defended AC Milan from 2010 to 2012. AC Milan will tie Ibrahimovic with a six-month contract with an option to extend for one year.

Ibrahimovic will undergo a medical on January 2. The former PSG striker is determined to help Milan's performance, which is currently ranked 11th in Serie A.

AC Milan's appearance this season is somewhat unimpressive. Milan are in 11th place in the Serie A standings until week 17 with a record of six wins, three draws and eight defeats.

Most recently, Milan was crushed by Atalanta for five goals without reply on December 22, 2019. AC Milan's front line sharpness is a bad record, where Silvio Pioli's club has only scored 16 goals in 17 matches.
