Milan released a statement confirming Zlatan Ibrahimovic doesn’t require knee surgery, but will undergo ‘conservative treatment for six weeks,’ putting Euro 2020 at real risk.
There had been fears of cruciate ligament damage when he limped off during the 3-0 win at Juventus.
He had a specialist consultation with Dr Volker Musahl in Pittsburgh today that found there was a sprain to the left knee, but no ligament damage.

There had been fears of cruciate ligament damage when he limped off during the 3-0 win at Juventus.

A statement was released this afternoon noting that Ibrahimovic does not require surgery and will undergo “conservative treatment for six weeks.”
The Sky Sport Italia report had suggested the issue could be resolved within three weeks, which would’ve allowed Ibra to be ready for Euro 2020 from June 11.
It remains to be seen if the treatment is required to continue as a precaution and he will still be allowed to play after three weeks, or if he is ruled out of Sweden’s squad for the European Championship.
