The initial reports after his specialist consultation had him requiring three weeks of treatment, but a statement from the Rossoneri noted that although surgery would not be necessary, the conservative treatment would last for six weeks.
“I spoke to Zlatan Ibrahimovic today, who unfortunately told me his injury will prevent his participation in the European Championship this summer,” said Sweden coach Andersson.
“Of course it is sad, especially for Zlatan, but for us too. I hope that he is back on the pitch again as soon as possible.”
Sweden’s opening Euro 2020 match is against Spain on June 14.
