The legendary Swedish striker, one of the game’s most charismatic figures, is hanging up his boots at the age of 41, having bid an emotional farewell to AC Milan on Sunday.
Ibrahimovic endured an injury-ravaged final campaign of his glittering, trophy-laden career, restricted to just four appearances across all competitions for the Rossoneri, who opted not to extend his contract.
Milan fans and team-mates bid goodbye to one of their most popular players in a ceremony at the San Siro on Sunday, after their final Serie A match of the campaign against Hellas Verona, which they won 3-1.
An impressive large tifo display that read simply ‘Godbye’ was unfurled by supporters in the stands, while Ibrahimovic had tears in his eyes as he received a standing ovation and was presented with a special signed shirt.
“I say goodbye to football but not to you,” he told fans at the San Siro.
