Zlatan Ibrahimovic returns to Sweden squad with no guarantee of playing time
AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic
returns to the Sweden squad after a one year absence for their European
Championship qualifiers against Belgium and Azerbaijan later this month, Sweden
coach Janne Andersson announced on Wednesday.
The 41-year-old played his last match
for the national team in 2022 against Poland in the World Cup qualification
playoff loss, but has since struggled with a long-term anterior cruciate
ligament injury that kept him on the sidelines.
Ibrahimovic quit international football after Euro 2016
but made his return in 2021 for their unsuccessful World Cup qualifiers.
“I don’t see him as a starter. It will be more like it has been in Milan that there are substitution possibilities,” Andersson said to reporters when asked about how much Ibrahimovic will play.
