In a surprising turn of events, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the legendary Swedish striker, has announced his return to AC Milan. This news comes just months after he retires from professional soccer at the age of 41. However, Ibrahimovic is not rejoining the Italian team as a player but rather takes up a role off the field.

Before his retirement, Ibrahimovic had already established two successful stints with AC Milan. The first stint lasted from 2010 to 2012, while the second term began in 2020 and ended in 2023. However, the dynamic striker decided to hang up his boots and now is exploring opportunities beyond the pitch as an advisor.

According to renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, Ibrahimovic has signed with AC Milan for the third time, but this time his role will be distinct. He will be working as an advisor to RedBird, the US private equity firm that owns the Italian giants AC Milan.

Despite his retirement, Ibrahimovic has maintained a keen interest in the team’s progress and has now taken on the responsibility of working closely with AC Milan’s management and ownership.
