Ibrahimovic Faces 3-Year Suspension Threat

A news report confirmed that Zlatan Ibrahimovic, AC Milan's striker, is at risk of receiving a three-year ban from participating in football activities. The website "Tutto Mercato" reported from the Swedish newspaper "Aftonbladet" that Zlatan violated FIFA and UEFA's code of ethics by becoming a partner in a sports betting company. It added that FIFA prohibits players involved in its competitions from having any interests in such companies, "betting companies." The site noted that Ibrahimovic risks facing a fine of €100,000, in addition to suspension from all football activities for up to three years. It concluded that the newspaper confirmed that the Swedish Football Association has been aware of these facts for three years, which is why they decided not to include Zlatan in the squad that participated in the 2018 World Cup.
