REVEALED: AC Milan players unhappy with Zlatan after Gazidis clash

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has had a blow-up with AC Milan chief exec Ivan Gazidis.

The Swede addressed Gazidis in front of the players at Milanello yesterday, unimpressed by his late return to the club.

"Why have you been away for so long and show up 48 hours before a game for the final?" snapped Ibrahimovic, before continuing, "There is no more Milan as it once was, there is too much uncertainty."

Gazidis agreed with the sentiment, reports Corriere dello Sport, responding in front of watching players: "Yes, it is true, AC Milan is no longer there for success and for the economic situation."

The chief exec also told the players nothing had been decided regarding Ralf Rangnick and that Stefano Pioli would remain in charge for now.

Ibrahimovic then also remarked: "If I stay, it's only for passion."

It's since emerged that many of Ibrahimovic's teammates were unimpressed by his outburst.
