AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic is out of next week's derby against Inter Milan.

La Gazzetta dello Sport says the Sweden international striker will have to take a compulsory break of at least ten days. The reason is an overload in his left knee.

Ibrahimovic will therefore miss at least the next three games.

The 40-year-old will be watching the league games against Genoa and Lazio as well as the Derby della Madonnina in the cup semifinals against Inter Milan in a week's time from the stands.
