Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the Swede veteran striker sat on the stands on Sunday night watching his teammates struggle against a solid Cagliari team that prevented the Rossoneri from qualifying to the Champions League in that fixture and made life harder for Stefano Pioli and his players.
The champions contribution is definitely a difference maker for the team. But, as the 39-year-old is currently out due to injury, he can't help on the pitch, but what he can do is offer advice and encourage fis fellow Rossoneri players.
As reported by Il Corriere della Sera, Zlatan Ibrahimovic would be trying to motivate his teammates in view of the very delicate away match in Bergamo.
On the field against Atalanta, Milan will try to give their everything to qualify for the next Champions League. A win would mean finally returning to the precious competition that the fans have not seen in 8 years so far.
