Zlatan Ibrahimovic has undergone surgery on a knee injury and will be out up to eight months.
A statement from AC Milan said: \"AC Milan announces that Zlatan Ibrahimović underwent an operation on his left knee carried out by Dr Bertrand Sonnery-Cottet, with the Club\'s Medical Director Stefano Mazzoni in attendance, at the Hôpital Jean Mermoz in Lyon.
\"The arthroscopy had been planned for a while to definitively resolve the joint\'s instability through the reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament, with lateral reinforcement and meniscus reparation.
\"The operation was a complete success and the prognosis is estimated between 7 and 8 months.\"
Ibrahimovic is now 40 and is worrying for the future of his career.
\"I\'m in a situation now where I\'m close to the goal line ... so I\'m a little bit panicking,\" he said.
\"Because when it stops, what do you do? I know I can do a lot of things, I will have offers from all over the place. But the adrenaline I get on the field, I will never get that [from] something else.\"
