Zlatan Ibrahimovic insists AC Milan 'are happy with' Stefano Pioli despite links between the Serie A giants and former Tottenham and Chelsea boss Antonio Conte

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has given his backing to current AC Milan boss Stefano Pioli, despite the club being linked with a move for Antonio Conte.

The former Tottenham manager has been out of work since losing his job at Spurs, and reportedly held talks with the Italian club last month.

It is believed Conte, spoke with former Milan striker Ibrahimovic, who now serves as the club's senior advisor, about succeeding Pioli next season.

However, the Swedish superstar has now thrown his full backing behind the current boss in a short and direct response over his future.
