Marco Tardelli, former player, spoke with The pressure the possibility of Zlatan Ibrahimovic returning Milan as a manager.
WORDS – «I can’t find a good reason why he can’t become a man outside the locker room. Our football needs men who know it from the bottom of their hearts and have experienced it. We all know that Ibrahimovic is a stodgy character and wouldn’t go to Milan as a mascot. But in my opinion he could go to Milanello to talk to the team and the coach if he had a well-developed role recognized by everyone. What happened after the derby defeat was simply a damage to everyone’s image. For the players, for the club and for the coach, and unfortunately Ibra’s surprise visit without a specific order only confused the boys even more. It is a very difficult role to interpret, which is paid for by the club, from which he is not allowed to maintain a certain distance, as he is the confidant of the boys and friend of the coach. Maybe this isn’t what Zlatan is looking for, but in my opinion this role is crucial to finding the lost path. I would really appreciate this choice».
