The Swede, while tied to owners RedBird, is also a Rossoneri director with major powers.
However, after the season was described as a "failure" by chief exec Giorgio Furlani, Ibrahimovic's future in the front office is under threat.
La Gazzetta dello Sport says Milan owner Gerry Cardinale has been left very disappointed with the results and plans to hire a sports director - with the brief to kickstart a new project.
Furlani is expected to choose the next sporting director, with no input from Ibrahimovic.
Instead, the new sporting director will also determine what role and tasks Ibrahimovic will have for next season.
It is not entirely certain that the former striker will have a position within the setup.

Maldini was doing a great job. He has a better understanding of the type of players, which would match with the coach way of playing, and that makes a huge difference.

I think the best way they can fix that and that is to get a winning coach like conte to kick start next season and at least gain champion league football, zhlatan is useless for them right now I suggest they should get rid of that garbage fast

Milan needs Maldini....
they won't get maldini back because they have already embarrassed him when they cut ties with him so might as well they get a coach like conte to do much better next season, zhlatan isn't worth shit I would pick conte over everything, look what he did for Napoli
