The “Rossoneri” striker emphasized in his statements that he sees the games of the representative group as an ideal opportunity to prove that he can still make a difference on the playing field.

What the bionic Zlatan said in his hometown:

“It would be very easy for me to retire in the summer as Italian champion, but that wouldn’t be Zlatan, that’s not the epilogue I want for myself.

I’m here to make a difference and if I didn’t think I could make it I wouldn’t be here. I don’t want to talk about my age, I still have a lot to give. I want to prove how wrong those who thought I was finished were.

Obviously I celebrated the goal, which made me the oldest goalscorer in the history of Serie A, but I don’t want records about my age, I want records about my performances, I don’t want another discussion about my age.”
