AC Milan chief exec Giorgio Furlani insists Zlatan Ibrahimovic will prove an asset.

The former striker has returned to Milan as an official adviser.

Furlani told Sportmediaset today: "If I had been a player I would have wanted him as a teammate.

"I am now a manager and I am lucky to have him as a teammate in this new role. He will bring a lot. We obviously already felt a lot both before and after the announcement.

"It will be nice."
