A never seen Ibrahimovic: “Giant among children”

Milan has returned to command in Calcio. The Rossoneri have been in Serie A for 20 games without losing a single game and the victory against Napoli, where they had not won for 10 years, confirms that their leadership is no coincidence. One of the secrets of his rebirth has a first and last name: Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Since his return in January, the team has once again felt what it has always been, great. When the Swede said he was coming to win, hardly anyone took it seriously. Many even criticized the club: holding on to a 39-year-old did not seem like a gamble for the future. The talent, hunger and perseverance of Zlatan, however, do not understand ages. The one we are seeing is the best league start of his entire career. The forward has scored 10 goals in his first six Serie A games, something never seen. Mino Raiola affirmed that “he can play until he is 50 years old”, and seeing him in the green is difficult not to agree with him.

The numbers of his match against the azzurri speak clearly: eight aerial duels won over 11, two key passes, three shots, two goals. It is so good that it is already being commented on renew your contract, which expires on June 30. “I missed a penalty against Verona, we are not so close anymore,” he laughed on Sunday, “but there is time to talk it over with Maldini.” 'La Gazzetta dello Sport' defined him “a giant among children”, for his leadership ability in a Milan whose squad boasts the lowest average age of Calcio. His presence is essential and, precisely for that reason, the news that arrived this Sunday about his conditions greatly worries the Rossonero world. Ibra left the field with 10 minutes remaining for the final whistle of the match with Napoli due to muscle discomfort, and the medical tests did not give good signs. The club spoke of “a hamstring injury to the left thigh” and announced new examinations within 10 days. The hope is that he will return soon. Milan need him to dream of the scudetto and everyone else wants to continue enjoying their pulse with Cristiano to be a capocannoniere.
