Milan miss their injured Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Zlatan? He misses the family in Stockholm.

– I would like to be with them, he tells the Corriere della Sera.

Wednesday night’s win against Lazio means Milan are going on vacation as a table in Serie A.

Without the muscle-injured Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who leads the domestic shooting league with ten goals, the team has managed to keep zero loss intact.

But despite the sporting success this fall, there is something that gnaws on the Swede’s head: the lack of Helena and her two children.

“I spoke to the house”

– Miss them a lot. I feel exhausted, I can’t take it anymore. I would like to be with my wife and children, Maximilian and Vincent, he tells Corriere della Sera.

In the interview, “Ibra” says that he was going crazy during the quarantine period.

– At one point I spoke to the house and gave the walls a name.

He has also tried to persuade Stefano Pioli, Milan coach, to travel home with the family. But without results.

– He says that I also have a family in Milanello (the training center). I have 25 people there who need me.

When asked if he might consider staying in Milan after his career, he replies:

– I don’t have such a big ego that I can decide on my own. My family is more important than anything else.
