'Ibrahimovic will reprimand team-mates if they mess up in training' - AC Milan's NXGN star Colombo learning from a legend

Teenage striker Lorenzo Colombo has hailed the impact of Zlatan Ibrahimovic at AC Milan, revealing how tough the veteran forward is on his team-mates in training.

Ibrahimovic has been cited as a key reason for the Rossoneri's resurgence over the past 12 months, with Stefano Pioli's side having spent a number of weeks at the top of Serie A this season before a poor run of results saw Inter usurp them and move clear.

Colombo, who is currently out on loan with Serie B outfit Cremonese having scored his first Milan goal earlier this season, feels he is lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from the ex-Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United star.
