Zlatan Ibrahimovic will take on his old club Manchester United after they were paired with his current team AC Milan in the last 16 of the Europa League in Friday's draw in Nyon.

This combination of file photographs created on February 26, 2021, shows Manchester United’s English striker Marcus Rashford as he takes a free kick but misses the target during the UEFA Europa League Round of 32, second leg football match between Manchester United and Real Sociedad at Old Trafford in Manchester, north west England, on February 25, 2021 and AC Milan’s Swedish forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic as he controls the ball during the UEFA Europa League round of 32, second leg football match...

Veteran forward Ibrahimovic won the 2017 edition of the Europa League with Premier League giants United in a two-year spell at the club.He was a big success in particular during his first season at United, where he won over fans with his goals and exciting play before a serious knee injury suffered in their Europa League last eight tie with Anderlecht ended his 2016-17 campaign.

“It’s one of the those draws again that you feel could be a Champions League game. It’s good for us to have these games to look forward to.”Milan, a club which despite its illustrious history had long been in the doldrums, have been revitalised since Ibrahimovic’s return in December 2019.They are currently battling for their first Italian league title since 2011 when the Swede was leading the Milan line for a team featuring the likes of Clarence Seedorf, Thiago Silva and Andrea Pirlo.

Milan meanwhile have surrendered top spot in Serie A to neighbours Inter Milan after a run of three defeats in five league matches which has Stefano Pioli’s side looking over their shoulder at a host of rivals for a place in the Champions League.They are without a win in four matches in all competitions thanks to straight league defeats at the hands of Spezia and Inter and the two draws with Red Star which saw them through to the last 16.
