How many more goals will Zlatan Ibrahimovic score?
Getty ImagesIbrahimovic celebrated his 40th birthday on October 3, 2021, but there is no sign of him slowing down any time soon.
Rolling 12-month contracts have been committed to since returning to AC Milan in January 2020, with there the potential for another to be signed in the coming weeks.
A relentless drive to be the best still burns as bright as ever, with that ambition rubbing off on those around him, while new rivals continue to be found in Italian and European football – allowing a remarkable list of opponents that have been breached to be extended.
There will come a day when Ibrahimovic heads off into retirement and leaves the art of goalscoring to somebody else, but it remains to be seen when that point will be reached.
