RedBird advisor Zlatan Ibrahimovic claims Milan is 'stronger' thanks to five new contracts in January but insists he and the team are 'not satisfied' with the results in the early part of the season. Let's explore with SHBET through the following article.
Milan strengthens its force with 5 new recruits
The Rossoneri completed five signings in the winter transfer window and one of them, Santiago Gimenez, was announced at a press conference on Tuesday.
“We are here to present the new Milan. We followed him a lot, we also tried (to sign him) in the summer, but it was not possible. Today, he is here, and that is the most important thing,” Ibrahimovic shared via MilanNews.
The Rossoneri made an offer to sign Gimenez last summer, but Feyenoord rejected their offer. “He has great qualities, he is hungry to score goals. He reminds me of Camarda, they also have the same desire to score goals,” Ibrahimovic continued.
“If you don't have desire, you will have nothing. He plays well in the box and can help the team a lot. He will find a strong Milan, he will play with Leao, Pulisic, Reijnders, Walker and many other players who can support him. Don't worry… Even Maignan knows how to create.
“He is here to deliver results. We hope he can create great memories here. He is in great hands to achieve success. We will take it step by step, we will help him. It always depends on the player; He just needs to focus on playing and we will take care of the rest.”

Ibrahimovic: Milan is not satisfied with current achievements, determined to change the situation
Milan confirmed four new signings, including Gimenez, on deadline day. “Yesterday was a stressful day, but always under control,” Ibra said
“I have to thank everyone because we did very well and achieved everything we wanted. We are not satisfied with our position in the table, we signed 5 players and left 5 players. This is the team that must turn things around."
Does this mean Milan have closed the gap with Italy's top teams?
“We have reinforced the team. If we close the gap, let's wait and see,” the former Swedish striker argued.
“We did everything according to the coach's consensus. I believe we have significantly improved the team."
“Stability has been lacking. When you win, you will be more confident, but if not, you have to start again and regain stability," Ibra continued.
“Milan has ups and downs, but we are the only team with a trophy. Milan always plays to win and when they win, they lift the trophy."
The Rossoneri have changed managers, while Walker and Gimenez are expected to become regular starters, replacing summer signings Emerson Royal and Alvaro Morata. The Spaniard joined Galatasaray on loan during the January transfer window.
“When we started the season, we believed in what we did,” Ibrahimovic argued.
“We are not happy with the current situation, so we decided to make changes and add some new players. We are not satisfied. We have a trophy, but we’re not satisfied. We want more, and we’re hungry for success."
“Everyone came after talking to the coach. We closed the deal with Sottil a minute and a half before the deadline, so I want to thank the lawyers and the secretariat for doing a great job. They are young, driven, and hardworking.
“The market is very dynamic. Sometimes, you have to move forward to get results. I worked with number one, Mino Raiola. Today, I realized how strong he is compared to others, no offense to anyone else.”

Ismael Bennacer joined Marseille on deadline day. Why did he leave?
“He requested a transfer. He is very important to Milan, but he was injured and returned at the end of December. He wants a new challenge," Ibrahimovic revealed.
Finally, Ibrahimovic sent a message to Milan fans, who have criticized the directors and owners in recent weeks.
“The last league championship we won was also thanks to the fans. We are stronger when our fans are by our side; they are very important. We are working and doing everything to bring results. This team is stronger when it has fans. We won the championship last time even though many people thought we weren't even in the top four, but we won thanks to the support of our fans,” Ibra concluded.
