Zlatan Ibrahimovic 'is NOT expected to be charged for racist abuse of Romelu Lukaku' following 'voodoo comments' during heated clash with former team-mate in the Milan derby

AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic will reportedly not be charged with any form of racist abuse towards Inter Milan rival Romelu Lukaku, following the pair's fiery clash during the recent Milan derby at the San Siro.

Ibrahimovic and Lukaku, who once played together at Manchester United, squared up on the pitch during the Italian cup match as tensions rocketed, with the Swedish striker making 'voodoo' comments in reference to a specific incident earlier in Lukaku's career.

Ibrahimovic has since explained to FIGC investigators what his comment was relating to, as report Football Italia, and also took the personal action of issuing a short statement on social media slamming all forms of racism.
