(Reuters) - AC Milan's veteran striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic is smiling, determined and ready to face Inter Milan in Saturday's derby after recovering from a COVID-19 infection, coach Stefano Pioli said Friday.
The 39-year-old's presence, even for part of the game, would be a big boost for Milan, who have won their first three Serie A games of the season without conceding a goal and are unbeaten in 19 matches in all competitions.
One of Europe's most charismatic players, the Swede - who tested positive on Sept. 25 and remained asymptomatic -- has scored 14 goals in 22 matches since returning for a second stint at Milan in January, helping revive his team. "Our journey began a year ago, but I can also say that we're still in the early stages: we still have plenty of room for improvement," he said."Beating such a strong side would give us enthusiasm and even more confidence in the qualities we have."
