Zlatan Ibrahimovic has made a claim on the Serie A title with Milan proving themselves to be genuine title contenders so far this term.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has insisted that he and his Milan team-mates must genuinely start thinking about winning the Scudetto.
Milan are top of the Serie A table by three points after 11 games and they remain unbeaten this term.
Eight wins since the start of the season has some fans dreaming about a possible Scudetto win which they last won in the 2010/11 season.
The Rossoneri have witnessed obvious transformation in fortunes when Ibrahimovic arrived at the club in the last winter window. At the age of 39, he is currently the top scorer in Serie A with 10 goals from six appearances.
The big Swede was at the Gazzetta Sports Awards 2020 and collected his trophy after winning the Legend Award. He spoke to reporters at the event.
“I’m training a lot, my philosophy is this: if you work hard, it all goes back. At thirty I felt I had to do more to feel good, then I have those around me who make me feel good,” he said as per Gazzetta dello Sport.
Asked about his return to Milan, he responded “It’s a different challenge, they weren’t at the top. It was a challenge to return, I hoped to do well. Those who returned to Milan for the second time did not manage to do as well as the first: I said within I am Zlatan Ibrahimovic and I can change things.”
On the trophies he has won: “Each trophy has its own story and emotion. They are all beautiful: when something comes back to you it means that you have done something good and positive.”
Ibrahimovic was also asked about Milan’s impressive domestic form and he didn’t shy away from title talk at all.
“The team must have courage for the dream of winning the Scudetto. It is long, I hope to continue like this: we are hungry, willing, to do more.”
Asked if his charisma is contagious, he replied: “Yes, I think I pass it on to my team-mates.”
Milan have been further boosted by the return of Ibrahimovic to training.
