Ibrahimovic hopes to transform AC Milan fortunes
Zlatan Ibrahimovic vowed to help turn AC Milan’s season around after joining on a six-month deal.
The 38-year-old striker completed his medical with the Rossoneri on Thursday, with his deal including an option to extend for next season.
Milan are currently 11th in Serie A and the former Sweden international hopes to improve the form of the club he previously played for in the 2011-12 campaign.

“My objective is to help the club and the team improve our current situation,” Ibrahimovic told the club’s official website.
“Personally, I just want to do my best.
“I have lots of fond memories, only good ones. This is a great club, a great team and San Siro is great too.”
Ibrahimovic revealed that talks regarding a return to the club had been in progress for several weeks.
