Ibrahimovic is the only leader Milan need – Rebic

Ante Rebic says Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the only on-field leader Milan need as he hailed the veteran striker s impact since returning to the club in January.

Ibrahimovic, 38, scored 11 goals in 20 appearances for Milan after joining on a free transfer at the turn of the year and signed a one-year extension last month.

The ex-Sweden international helped to revive the Rossoneri s flagging campaign, with Rebic among those to step up in a strong end to 2019-20 that ended with a 13-game unbeaten run.

Rebic has earned praise for his leadership qualities but insists Ibrahimovic is head coach Stefano Pioli s commander-in-chief on the pitch.

Zlatan is a great player he helps the team and has a major effect on everyone, he told Milan TV.

It s always a pleasure to play with him, but I just focus on my own work and to do well in my role. I hope to do even better.
