The Swede will make his first return to Juve since quitting the club in the summer of 2006.

"I'm excited by the prospect of playing against Juventus," said Ibrahimovic. "I love these types of big games.

"The reaction of the fans? If they whistle me then that will make me happy."

On being branded a traitor by Juve fans, Ibra added: "That's the way things are in football.

"When you are at a club everyone is happy and they love you, then when you leave everyone is unhappy."
