‘Ibrahimovic only behind Ronaldo & Van Basten’ – Enigmatic Swede still ‘phenomenal’ at 38, says Cassano

Only Brazil legend Ronaldo and Dutch icon Marco van Basten sit ahead of Zlatan Ibrahimovic when it comes to the “best No.9s of the last 30 years”, says the Swede’s former AC Milan team-mate Antonio Cassano.

A return to San Siro is being made by the mercurial frontman following the expiration of his contract at MLS side the LA Galaxy.

After much speculation regarding his next move, the 38-year-old has decided to head back to familiar surroundings as he returns to European football from an American adventure.
