Zlatan Ibrahimovic shows off his incredibly ripped physique as AC Milan striker delivers cheeky Christmas greeting with boxing gloves on

Zlatan Ibrahimovic may be dealing with a long spell out through injury, but that hasn’t stopped him from getting into the Christmas spirit.

The AC Milan striker took to Twitter to share a festive message to his followers whilst switching football boots for boxing gloves.

Despite him not playing since May, Zlatan has still been able to keep himself in peak condition.

The Swede shared his physique on social media, and added a cheeky twist to his post.

“Merry ChristmaZ to you and your wifes! Ciao,” he tweeted on Christmas Day.

It would be easy for someone to mistake him for a boxer rather than a footballer judging by his figure.

However, he would need to be careful in the ring as he recovers from his knee injury.

Soon after AC Milan’s Serie A title win last season, Zlatan revealed that he had been playing with an ACL injury.

He then underwent surgery that would keep him out of action for around seven months.

A return to football could therefore be on the horizon, with his side currently sitting second in the league.

Zlatan may appear to be in great physical condition, but his match fitness levels are likely to not be so great.

However, he will no doubt be ready and raring to go as Milan look to defend their prestigious crown.
