Striker suffered problem in Milan’s win over Juventus
39-year-old came out of international retirement in March

Zlatan Ibrahimovic will miss the European Championships this summer due to a knee injury, the Sweden coach Janne Andersson has confirmed.

The striker, who only came out of international retirement in March, suffered the problem during Milan’s 3-0 win over Juventus last weekend. Despite it being deemed that the 39-year-old does not require surgery, he will still be unable to make a full recovery in time for the tournament, with Milan saying he requires at least six weeks of treatment.
