Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the veteran striker, has announced his retirement from football following AC Milan’s 3-1 win over Verona. The 41-year-old had been expected to bid farewell to Milan fans after his departure from the seven-time European champions was announced on Saturday.

Over the course of his career, Ibrahimovic won league titles in the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, and France. Although his only major European trophy was the 2017 Europa League with Manchester United.
