AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic: Better to be in Sweden

AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic says he won't stay in Sweden.

Ibrahimovic is spending the coronavirus suspension with Hammarby, where he owns a minority stake.

“Of course I'm worried, I get a lot of updates all the time about things that have happened and that are happening," he told Dplay Sweden.

“At the same time, I don't think we can stop everything. I have to keep going and living my life.

“I mean, there are other things that can happen as well, but everyone has to take responsibility and respect the situation."

He added: We'll see what happens. At the moment, it's nothing I think of because I have a contract with Milan.

“I want to play as long as I can. Will I play in Allsvenskan? I don't know. I've always said I won't play there but I've said other things as well that have changed so we'll see what happens.

“Nobody knows [when I'll return to Milan]. As soon as we know when we can start training, then I'll go there. Now it makes no sense to go there.

“Everyone is training at home, publishing on their social media accounts that they're doing push-ups and sit-ups.

“For me, it's better to be here, to play and train football with a whole team."
