According to SVT Sports' information yesterday, concerns are growing in Milan regarding Zlatan Ibrahimovic's injury.
Similar information still exists today in Italian La Gazzetta dello Sport.
The newspaper states that Ibrahimovic's own concerns about the situation have increased during the rehabilitation period, which should not have gone completely according to plan.
It was on May 9 that the 39-year-old got off the plane during Milan's match against Juventus.
Shortly afterwards, the knee injury was confirmed and later that Ibrahimovic missed the European Championships with Sweden.
The recovery time was estimated at six weeks.
"Very swollen knee"
The striker was asked by Janne Andersson to be part of the "reserve bubble" that was taken out yesterday due to the covid attacks in the Swedish EC squad.
- I checked how it was with him.
He is not that far ahead, so it was not relevant based on where he is in his rehab, Janne Andersson said yesterday.
Gazzetta dello Sport writes today that Ibrahimovic still has a "very swollen knee" and that Zlatan himself should be very worried about the rehabilitation.
May be forced to surgery
The nightmare scenario is that Ibrahimovic will be forced to have an operation - a scenario that could become a reality at the end of June if the medical team judges that the knee has not responded to the rehabilitation so far.
An operation would, in the worst case, keep Zlatan away from play for several months.
Ibrahimovic underwent surgery four years ago in connection with the cruciate ligament injury he suffered at Manchester United.
