Zlatan Ibrahimovic is delighted to be home after arriving to undergo a medical ahead of his return to Milan.
Ibrahimovic will sign a six-month contract, with an option for another year, with the Rossoneri after touching down at Linate Airport in Milan on Thursday.
The 38-year-old striker was available on a free transfer after deciding to end a two-year stint with MLS side LA Galaxy.
Ibrahimovic represented Milan from 2010 until 2012, winning the Scudetto and Supercoppa Italiana, and expressed his pleasure at securing a second stint.
I remember arriving in this same spot many years ago. What matters now is that I m back and I m happy, Ibrahimovic told Milan TV.
I ve always said this is my home and I m finally back. I ve played for other teams in my years, but finally I m back and that s all that matters.

Asked if he had a message for the fans, who gathered in their hundreds at the airport to catch a glimpse of the star striker, Ibrahimovic added: I m back, finally.
I m eager to see the fans at San Siro, to make the stadium jump with joy again.
Milan sit 11th in Serie A after a 5-0 thrashing at Atalanta, their worst league loss for 21 years, prior to the mid-season break. They return to action at home to Sampdoria on Monday.
