Ibrahimovic: I have no personal goals, everything I do is to help Milan win the championship again

October 11th Recently, Milan consultant Ibrahimovic accepted an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport. He talked about Allegri, the role of a father and the Milan youth team and other topics.

Who will be the surprise of this season

"Pavlovich can continue to improve, and S-Jimenez can score a lot of goals as long as he breaks through the bottleneck. Yasari is at the top level, and Ricci will also grow. This team is a perfect combination of current strength and future potential."

Has Allegri changed much now compared to when he coached you?

"I helped him win his first championship. That Milan team at that time was full of championship players. The best thing is to let them sit on the bench, and they can play on autopilot on the court. Allegri is very good at managing the team, but things are different now. There are fewer ‘big names’ in the team and it is a very young team. Allegri has also experienced his own growth, he has won a lot and knows what to do. "

Regarding opponents such as Naples, Inter Milan, and Juventus

"I don't pay attention to others, but this is not arrogance. Because if I rely on other people's performance , it means that I am not strong enough. I have to make myself stronger and let others pay attention to me. "

About Inter Milan coach Chivu

"I have known him since the Ajax days. At that time, the Ajax team was full of geniuses, and he was the most mature one, both in terms of thinking and person. He was a champion player and now as a coach it is too early to judge him. I wish him good luck, but he may not need it. ”

as How do you feel as a father of two sons?

"They used their mother's surname (Wolf) until they were 16 years old. Then they came to me and said they wanted to change to the surname 'Ibrahimovic.' They were ready and had the confidence. I told them at the time: this road will not be easy."

Will you interfere with your son's coaching arrangements?

"In the two years when they first started playing football, I never went to the Milan youth team training base. I don't know. Ask yourself if you have done something wrong. As a father, I also want to enjoy their growing moments, but I don't want to be disruptive. Now they play in Milan and I help, give advice and follow them, but I judge them the same as any other player. "

"There were a lot of nonsense that made me very angry, such as the rumor that Camarda (Milan youth team forward) didn't sign because of me. Even with my son, I wouldn't step in to get him to sign. it's not fair : If they can stand out, they must rely on their own strength. Of course, if I had my way they would be playing in the first team and the national team now, but in our academy they are just as important as anyone else. "

The Milan Future Team was relegated from Serie C to the Amateur League last season

"We formed this team not to "preserve relegation" in Serie C, but to build a "bridge" to fill the gap between the youth team and the first team. This connection The link has been missing for too long and we need it to develop young players. This is a long-term project that involves the entire youth system: from the youth team to the first team. The club’s ownership trusts this plan very much and has decisively decided to invest resources. It is also very satisfied with the work being done by the head of Milan’s youth training and the coach of Milan’s future team. "

Why never mention the word "Serie A champion"

"Do I believe we can win the championship? Of course, and all of us do Must believe. But winning the championship is a process and requires teamwork. "

Have we seen from the original "God Ibrahimovic" to the Ibrahimovic who emphasizes "I" and "us"

"Wait a minute, Ibrahimovic is still God. If I were still there, I would have all the answers. Sitting in the stands now, I still feel anxious about not being able to help the team. I have no personal goals, everything I do is for Milan, to win the title again. "
