When one legend meets another: last night in New York, after the final whistle of Milan-Manchester City, there was room for an exchange of jokes between Erling Haaland And Zlatan Ibrahimovic. At the end of the friendly that the Rossoneri won 3-2, in the corridors of the Yankee Stadium in New York the Norwegian was seen enthusiastically approaching the former Swedish center forward. It is known that for Haaland, Ibra represents one of the idols he has looked up to throughout his career, even if he now aims to surpass him in terms of goals and titles won.
The City star gave Zlatan a shirt with a dedication that Ibra read aloud: “To Zlatan, a true legend, best wishes”. Shortly before, the Senior Advisor of RedBird Capital can be heard saying, referring to Haaland: “This is the new generation. We don’t need filters.”
Resuming the post posted on Instagram by MilanIbra then responded from his own profile with a thought referring to the agent Mino Raiola who both had looked after his interests, before his premature death: “Mino would have been proud” – his message.
