Milan are keen to bring Ibra back to San Siro, and GQ asked him about the possibility of a return to Italy.
“I’ll say two things,” Ibrahimovic replied.
“One might contradict the other. The first, is that you never know. The second is that you never return to a club where you made history.
“Italy is my second home, there’s infinite passion there, it’s hot and total. They have a similar way of understanding the sport to me, maybe it’s the same for life [in general].”
Ibrahimovic was also asked about his relationship with the Coaches he’s worked with throughout his career, having been trained by Fabio Capello, Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola, among others.
“The only one I left on bad terms with was Guardiola. I had arguments with the others, but I remain friends with them all.
“Capello? Once [at Juventus] I hit [Jonathan] Zebina. I was expecting to be reprimanded, but instead he stayed silent and later said that the gesture had been good for the team.
“He wanted the maximum tension and adrenaline, which was perfect for me.”
