Ibrahimovic tore his anterior cruciate ligaments and underwent surgery in May. Normally, ACL injuries take the longest time to heal.

It does not help that Ibrahimovic is now 41 years old and the recovery could be potentially slower than in other players. AC Milan handed him a one-year contract extension as he nursed his serious injury.
