AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic will sing at an Italian music festival, according to Bologna manager Sinisa Mihajlovic.
The Swedish star will turn his hand to pop and perform alongside Mihajlovic in Sanremo next month.
Ibrahimovic is a man of many talents; he has a black belt in Taekwondo and his autobiography I Am Zlatan was shortlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year award.
However the 39-year-old is rumoured to be an awful singer.
Speaking to Sky Italia Mihajlovic admitted: 'The two things I do least well are singing and dancing. Ibra is also a terrible singer. At least we'll make people laugh.'
The Sanremo Music Festival is one of the most popular music events in Italy and has been held annually since 1951.
This year's festival is between March 2-6 and will be televised. Ibrahimovic will travel to the event by helicopter to ensure he's still available for his day job.
Ibra and Mihajlovic have been friends for years and the Serbian previously coached the Swede at Inter Milan.
The 51-year-old left his position as an assistant to then manager Roberto Mancini in 2008 to become Bologna manager; he has since coached Fiorentina, Sampdoria and AC Milan as well as the Serbian national team.
Mihajlovic returned to Bologna in January 2019 and was reportedly keen on signing Ibrahimovic before he returned to the San Siro.
The Swedish striker has been in excellent form this season; notching 14 goals in 12 appearances for the Rossoneri. He also scored the 500th goal of his illustrious club career in Milan's 4-0 win over Crotone earlier in February.
Milan legend Paolo Maldini also likened Ibrahimovic to Dutch great Marco van Basten.
