Jeremy Menez believes Milan would be Scudetto contenders if Zlatan Ibrahimovic joined from Paris Saint-Germain.
The Rossoneri have been publicly courting the Swedish striker all summer, and his former teammate in Paris continued the charm offensive in an interview with Corriere dello Sport.
“With Ibrahimovic, Milan would be worthy of the Scudetto,” Menez told the newspaper.
“He’s one of the best in the world. My relationship with him was great in Paris, there have been a lot of lies told about that.

“He’s one of the best in the world. My relationship with him was great in Paris, there have been a lot of lies told about that.
“The other signings? [Carlos] Bacca scored a lot with Sevilla, Luiz Adriano did a lot for Shakhtar in the Champions League. Hopefully they can repeat that at Milan.”
The French international also denied rumours he is looking to leave San Siro, but admits the Diavolo under-performed last season.
“The French and English journalists are the ones who say I’m leaving Milan, I’m happy here and I have no intention of leaving.
“Am I Silvio Berlusconi’s favourite player? He understands football, so he likes the way I play!
“Seriously though, last year was negative, because we didn’t get into the Champions League or even the Europa League. It was tough not playing in Europe.
“In terms of goals it was my best year, but it’s not enough for me just to score, I have to get more assists and help the team win.
“Next season I hope I can do even better. I’ve already talked to the Coach [Sinisa Mihajlovic], I’m at his disposal.
“I haven’t forgotten how to play behind the strikers or on the left wing, two positions I like just as much as being the main striker.”
