AC Milan's Swedish great Zlatan Ibrahimovic has announced his retirement from football at the age of 41.
"I say goodbye to football but not to you," he told AC Milan's fans after being serenaded by the San Siro crowd following Sunday's final game of the season against Hellas Verona.
Ibrahimovic had already announced he would leave the Italian club, with his contract expiring this month.

Football is going to be a quieter, duller place without him.

Great player on his day , ego and arrogance may have cost him a few fans over the years but surely can’t be denied he was a great striker of his era.

Unreal longevity for an unreal player.
Benzema leaving Madrid and Zlatan retiring, all in one day. Football, eh?

Retired a few years ago all but officially. Will say this much for him though, he did go to Saudi or USA and take the easy money.
