Zlatan Ibrahimovic on Monday sent a signal that he might be considering an international comeback as he continues to produce show-stopping displays for AC Milan that defy his advancing years. Ibrahimovic, who turned 39 last month, posted a picture of himself on his social media channels in a Sweden kit with the message "Long time no see".

However when asked by Swedish sports daily Sportbladet, Sweden's team manager Stefan Pettersson said he had no recent contact with Ibrahimovic. Sportbladet also reports the Swedish Football Federation has not contacted AC Milan about the player. Ibrahimovic, who retired from international football after Euro 2016, has been in superb form since the start of the new Serie A season.
