CM: Milan considering change to Ibrahimovic’s role – the idea moving forward | OneFootball

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been a heavily criticised figure in recent months, and AC Milan may move him into a new role soon.

There has been a lot of discourse about Ibrahimovic since he came back to the club almost two years ago now. Originally, it was due to confusion over his role, which still exists. Now, it is a frustration about his blasé attitude to some things.

Despite making suggestions that he is not employed by Milan, he has still been front and centre on several occasions, leading many to become annoyed with him, and in turn the management.

Giorgio Furlani has already been given more power in recent months, with Zlatan’s situation once again becoming unclear, but Calciomercato.com have tried to provide some clarity on the situation.

According to a report this afternoon, Ibra will still work with Furlani and maintain the ‘360-degree control of all areas’, whilst providing an ‘institutional presence’ at events. However, it would be preferential for him to change departments a little.

Therefore, the current suggestion is that he remains involved with choices on the pitch and in the market, but he works more in line with RedBird, rather than the sporting area. Put simply, this would see him return to what he was initially supposed to be, but has not been so far.
