The replacement for Zlatan Ibrahimovic who is about to sign AC Milan

Zlatan Ibrahimovic had a tremendous season so far, being one of the best strikers in the top 5 European leagues. With 10 goals scored on just six matches played, the attacker is the one who scored the most in the Serie A. After such a start, he suffered an injury that sent him out of the field during a couple of weeks.

Despite he is not talking about it, retirement will arrive one day for Zlatan as he is already 39 years old. His great conditions make him possible to play until a very advanced age, but at AC Milan they know that everything will reach an end one day and are thinking on signing someone who could occupy his role in the squad.

Ibrahimovic has a contract signed until June 2021, that he renewed in August of this year, and is thinking on staying for now. Milan sport advisers are interested on signing another no. 9 whose career may also last until an advanced age: Fernando Llorente. The attacker is 35 years old and is set to leave Napoli as he is not playing.

During his career, the forward passed through Juventus, Sevilla, Tottenham, Swansea, Athletic Bilbao and CD Basconia, in addition to Napoli, and could now join Milan. His good form and level make him possible to play a couple of years more, and he is trying to extend his career as Zlatan did.
