Zlatan Ibrahimovic is returning to Old Trafford after Man Utd were drawn against AC Milan in a mouth-watering Europa League last-16 tie.
The 39-year-old striker established himself as a fan favourite during his short spell at Old Trafford, scoring in the Community Shield and EFL Cup triumphs in 2016/17.
Ibrahimovic played a key role in that season’s victorious Europa League run, but a serious knee injury in the quarter-final triumph against Anderlecht ruled him out of the remainder of the campaign.
