Zlatan Ibrahimovic resumed group training at AC Milan on Friday. The Swedish striker seems to be able to return to AS Roma on Sunday.
Ibrahimovic suffered a calf injury during training on May 25. It was initially feared that the 38-year-old striker might not be able to play this season, but soon the injury turned out to be less serious than expected.
On Friday, Ibrahimovic fully trained with Milan. According to Gazzetta dello Sport the routine will sit on the bench on Sunday when his team takes on AS Roma at home.
Simon Kjaer has also recovered from an injury. The Danish defender can probably play against Roma from the start.

Milan has the option to extend the Ibrahimovic contract
Ibrahimovic returned to Milan in January after 7.5 years. His contract will expire this summer, although Milan has an option for an extra season. In eight games, the striker made three hits.
Ibrahimovic is already preparing for a career after his active career in Sweden. He became co-owner of the Hammarby club late last year. During the corona crisis, the striker received an official warning because he visited the rules in the dressing room of Hammarby after a game.
Milan occupies eighth place with eleven more games to play. The ‘Rossoneri’ compete with Parma and Hellas Berona for seventh place, which entitles to a ticket to the qualifying round of the Europa League.
AS Roma occupies fifth place and is nine points ahead of Milan.
