Zlatan had a knee surgery in May and is expected to be out for eight months. He also had an injury-prone season in 2021-22, making 27 appearances in all competitions. Here we decode the stats of the prolific striker.

    Why does this story matter?

    Zlatan holds immense love and respect from the AC Milan board and despite the forward set to turn 41 in October, a new deal was never going to be an issue.

    Zlatan endured a difficult 2021-22 season and had later revealed that he played through pain for around six months.

    11th-highest scorer for Milan

    With 92 goals, Zlatan is the 11th-highest scorer for Milan. He also has 75 goals for Milan in Serie A and is the 10th-highest scorer. In the upcoming season, Zlatan can surpass Kaka's tally in terms of goals (77). Zlatan has won two Serie A honors and one SuperCoppa Italiana with the club.

    Zlatan has scored 155 Serie A goals

    In 70 Serie A matches for Juventus, Zlatan went on to score 23 goals. Across three seasons, he netted 57 league goals in 88 matches for Inter Milan. For Milan, he scored 42 goals in his first spell and another 33 since his return. In total, he has scored 155 Serie A goals and is tied with Filippo Inzaghi.
