He has crossed the age of 41. At this age, most footballers hang up their boots and plan for retirement. But if he does what everyone else does, then why is his name Zlatan Ibrahimovic? Ibrahimovic means something different. So even at this age, he can say, "It's not time to retire yet."

The journey with AC Milan is now awaiting Ibrahimovic's end. By playing against Hellas Verona next Sunday, this Swedish star can add another chapter to his Milan career. It is believed that in that match, Milan fans will bid farewell to Ibrahimovic officially at San Siro. Despite being insignificant for Milan, the match holds special importance because of Ibrahimovic.

However, there is no expectation for Ibrahimovic to play in his potential farewell match. Due to an injury, the Swedish forward has been off the field since April. Despite the injury, Ibrahimovic has had the opportunity to play in only four matches for Milan this season. While he continues to fight with the injury, he is not thinking about saying goodbye to football. This football star has also expressed the desire to be called 'Superman' himself.

Even if he hasn't found balance in his own life so far, Ibrahimovic considers himself superhuman when he steps on the field. Regarding his mental strength, this Swedish star has further stated, "Mentally, I am very strong. I consider myself Superman, but I need more balance. In life, I need to create balance. Without balance and stability, everything can go upside down."

While waiting to bid farewell to Milan, Ibrahimovic has also expressed the idea of considering this club his home. Regarding his relationship with Milan, he has said, "Milan is my home. But I don't know anything about my contract. It is enough for me to know that I am a player of Milan. Then I can understand what I need to do. Anything else is not important to me. What is important to me is coming back on the field. Otherwise, the joy will be lost."
