Zlatan's extended stay is reportedly worth 7 million euros ($8.3 million). His decision will bolster the Italian club as the 2020 season kicks off in September.

Zlatan's second stint at the club saw him score 10 goals in 18 Serie A matches, with AC Milan finishing sixth in the league and earning Europa League spot.
