London, October 20: Zlatan Ibrahimovic could be ready to extend his contract at Milan after a fine start to the season.

Ibrahimovic returned to the Serie A club in January, extending his deal in August through until the end of the 2020-21 season.

However, the veteran striker could be set to remain at the club for longer, per speculation in Italy.

The 39-year-old has scored four goals in two Serie A games for league leaders Milan this season, including a brace in the derby win over rivals Inter at the weekend.

Ibrahimovic netted 10 goals and provided five assists in 18 league appearances in 2019-20.
