In a significant turn of events, Zlatan Ibrahimovic may be set to return to AC Milan, according to a report in Repubblica. However, the former player’s new role within the club may come as a surprise.
The Swedish star is reportedly being considered for a Director of Football position. A role in which he would act as a support for the current youth team coach, Ignazio Abate.
Abate is positioned ready to step in as the main team coach, should Stefano Pioli face dismissal following an adverse result against Newcastle. This development is one to keep an eye on considering its potential implications on the future direction of the prestigious Milan team.
