Dear AC Milan, Zlatan Ibrahimovic Is Injured Again

JAKARTA - AC Milan's efforts in pursuing the Scudetto title this season have been tested. One of their mainstay players, namely Zlatan Ibrahimovic, was forced to miss defending the team due to injury.

Quoted from Italian Football, Ibrahimovic was absent from the match against Torino last weekend along with three other Rossoneri retainers. Ibra's absence was allegedly because the player had problems with his knee.

From the results of a follow-up examination of the AC Milan medical team, Ibrahimovic is known to experience fatigue in his knees due to playing too much. From this diagnosis, the 40-year-old striker inevitably has to be absent for at least 10 days.

The doctor's suggestion for Ibrahimovic to rest will clearly have an impact on the team. Because in the deadline mentioned by the medical team, Milan has been waiting for several important matches.

Stefano Pioli's team must appear against Genoa and Lazio in the domestic competition. Not only that, they will also wade through the second leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final against Inter Milan next week.

The absence of Ibrahimovic makes Milan will lack one of the mainstay players. This situation is also detrimental to the team considering that the Swedish player has not recently recovered from an Achilles injury.

The injury forced Ibrahimovic out of action for 40 days from January to early March. Because of these conditions, Ibrahimovic has only been able to return to appear in the last three matches.

Even though the presence of the Swedish striker could be the focus of a team that is chasing a number of titles.

So far this season Ibrahimovic has missed 18 games because of his condition. However, from 23 appearances, he has made eight goals and two assists for AC Milan.
