Zlatan Ibrahimovic: AC Milan title winners were incredible group

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is proud of his time with AC Milan.

The veteran striker helped Milan win the Scudetto before he hung up the boots.

The Swede admits he enjoyed winning the title with that team two years ago: “There were no superstars.

“We had to take things one game at a time. Whoever was ready stayed, the others left. An incredible group was created, the best I'd ever seen."

On his first Italian club, Juventus, Ibra added: “As soon as I arrived, he told me to forget everything about Ajax. He told me that I had a better technique than (Marco) van Basten, but my movement wasn't as good.

“At Juventus, I wanted to show the world who I am, but I was lacking in goals. David Trezeguet scored them all. On the field, we proved that we were the strongest."
