Ibrahimovic has denied he racially abused Romelu Lukaku during Inter-Milan: ‘In Zlatan’s world there is no place for racism.’
The Swede was involved in a spat with the Inter striker in the first half of the Coppa Italia clash between Nerazzurri and Rossoneri.
Ibra reportedly told Lukaku “"Do your voodoo s***, little donkey,” causing his opponent’s anger.
As FootballItalia explained, the comment was referencing a specific incident from the Belgian's Everton days.
The Swede once again clarified his claims had nothing to do with racism.
“In ZLATAN’s world there is no place for RACISM. We are all the same race – we are all equal !! We are all PLAYERS some better then others,” the striker wrote on Twitter linking a video to his Instagram page.
