Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s relationship with Milan boss Paulo Fonseca at rock bottom

Serie A side Milan are considering manager Paulo Fonseca’s future and his relationship with Zlatan Ibrahimovic isn’t said to be great.

Luca Bianchin has reported that some of Ibrahimovic’s comments haven’t gone down well with Fonseca. The Swede once stated in an interview that the the coach remains the coach and the club does the rest, when it comes to the Rossoneri recruitment.

Two weeks after a break, Ibrahimovic spoke to the players and told them that he is the ‘boss’ and asks them how things are going with the coach. This also didn’t go down well with Fonseca, whose relationship is not easy with Ibrahimovic right now.

Fonseca sees the Swede as someone who is ‘abrasive’ and makes everything about himself, while speaking things in public that shouldn’t be said. 

The report states that while Ibrahimovic did give his approval to the move for the Portuguese, it was Geoffrey Moncada who first suggested Fonseca as the choice. These things are causing a strain at the club and the upcoming Milan derby is expected to be crucial.
