Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic should return to train with the group by Thursday and reportedly aims to be back in the squad against FC Porto in the Champions League.

The Rossoneri veteran, who turned 40 at the start of the month, is working his way back from an Achilles injury.

Tuttosport believes he will be back in training between Wednesday and Thursday, as he continued his personal work yesterday.

The newspaper reports he could be called up for the match against Hellas Verona after the international break, but that the Swede is targeting a return against Porto in the third match of the Champions League group stage next week.

Ibrahimovic has only played once in Serie A this term, scoring in the 2-0 win against Lazio on September 12.

He returned from a knee injury against the Biancocelesti, but then suffered an Achilles irritation and missed the international duty with Sweden this month too.
