AC Milan signing Ibrahimovic: I had more offers now than when I was 28!

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is excited about returning to AC Milan.

The Swedish veteran, 38, has initially signed with the Rossonero to the end of this season.

Ibrahimovic said, "I feel the enthusiasm of the fans. I have a great relationship with them, very positive. The support of the fans is important, if we can have that things are easier to do. I am ready and I hope to play today.

"After the last game in America, with Los Angeles, I had Paolo's (Maldini) call. I had more requests than when I was 28. I was honest, I was looking for adrenaline, to get it out. Because at this age you don't play for economy, you are looking for something to get better. Then I talked to (Zvonimir) Boban ... a month after Atalanta there were many calls.

"The last time I left Milan without my ok, the situation was what it was. I did PSG, United, Galaxy. The important thing is to be here now, Milan is home.

"My desire is maximum."
