Zlatan is not returning to AC Milan. The Italian top club hoped to bring the Swede back in the winter, but according to technical director Leonardo, the 37-year-old striker stays with LA Galaxy. ''We would have liked to have ' Ibra ' to Milan, he could have helped us very much. But he has given his word to "LA Galaxy," said Leonardo. "If they would meet his wishes, he would stay." And that happened. "
The Swedish born Maestro played between 2010 and 2012 already in the shirt of AC Milan. He immediately provided the club with the title in his first year. In two seasons, he scored 42 goals in Serie A. The striker went to the United States early this year, and he has already scored 22 times for LA Galaxy in Major League Soccer (MLS), but it didn't turn out enough for a spot in the playoffs.
The MLS will be quiet in the coming months, so I could be rented out, but that's not going on. "It would have been a nice story and a significant boost for the team," Leonardo said. "We cannot deny that both parties have thought about it, but it is not possible. "
AC Milan also still tries to lure Cesc Fàbregas from Chelsea, where the Spaniard is barely playing, but the Spanish player insists he's still very much happy at his present club. The current number four of Serie a needs an extra midfielder because Lucas Biglia has been eliminated by an injury.
