Although Zlatan Ibrahimovic is in recovery mode, AC Milan hasn’t stopped making moves in UCL. After blowing out Napoli 4-0 in a Serie A matchup about 10 days ago, they faced each other again in the first leg of the UCL quarterfinals. AC Milan has gained a 1-0 lead in the first leg and will be facing Napoli in the 2nd leg on their home turf.

While the team is doing its best to reach the semifinals, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is busy doing Zlatan things. He is known for his persona and is someone who nobody wants to mess with on the field. However, what he recently did has made fans compare him to the beloved Keanu Reeves character, John Wick.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic compared to John Wick

In a recent clip, Zlatan Ibrahimovic seems to be giving tough competition to Hollywood stuntmen. With a sword and a shield, he almost got the bunker under control all by himself. Like a protagonist in a movie based on the Roman or Greece empire, Ibrahimovic acted like fighting multiple guys and came out victorious.

He was obviously acting and didn’t harm anyone, just like Keanu Reeves did in the superhit series, John Wick. This fact didn’t go over fans’ heads and they noticed the similarities. A renascence-themed Keanu Reeves, if you will. TikTok star Davian Ricketts started by saying, “John Wick 5 loading ..“.

Other fans also continued and said, “Jhon wickbrahimovic“, “i want to see Zlatan at john wick 5“, “need my boi in the next John Wick fr“, and “John Wick’s been real quiet since this dropped“. At this point, fans would do anything to watch Zlatan in an action movie. While some suggested movies like John Wick or Vikings, fans didn’t forget the star’s connection with Ted Lasso.

Zava is Zlatan, Zlatan is Zava

The character Zava, in Ted Lasso, is loosely based on Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Talking about that fact, fans had multiple reactions. Reactions like, “Zava is protecting his avocado farm”, “Zavaaaaaa!”, “That’s not Ibra that’s Zava”, “It’s the real Zava”, and “You mean Zava right?“.

From a sword fight to signing and sending back the t-shirt LeBron sent him; Ibrahimovic can really do it all. Milan is desperately waiting for him to come back on the field. By the looks of it, fans can expect him in the semifinals given they convert their lead in the second leg. Do you think AC Milan will be able to convert? Or will Napoli be making a comeback?
