The former Manchester United striker, 38, has signed for the Rossoneri and could make another debut against Sampdoria tonight.

Striker Ibra - who played on loan at the San Siro from Barcelona in 2010 and then joined them permanently in 2011 - sang a song at dinner with his new team-mates, eight years after leaving Serie A for Paris Saint-Germain.

Gianluigi Donnarumma uploaded a video of the big Swede clapping to a tune along with his new team-mates.

While the video does not show what song Ibra sang, the forward appears pleased with himself over his choice of music.

He last played a competitive game in Los Angeles Galaxy's 5-3 MLS defeat to rivals Los Angeles FC in 'el traffico'.

Ibrahimovic - who also played for Inter Milan from 2006 to 2009 - signed for AC on Thursday on a free after his Galaxy contract expired.

Thousands of fans waited at the airport to greet him as he came off the plane before completing his medical in the Italian city.

But there were supporters in Sweden who are not keen on the star's massive statue at Malmo's stadium, which has been vandalised.

Milan boss Stefano Pioli said: "Ibra is a warrior, a leader, a charismatic player who has a great sense of responsibility and a great desire to win.

"He'll stimulate the whole team, his contribution will be crucial.

"Being the youngest team in the league, we've encountered some limitations in terms of a competitive streak.

"Ibra is the kind of player, person and leader who can help us fill that void. I thank the club. Gazidis, Maldini, Boban and Massara worked a lot during the holidays.

"He can do it all, he knows how set up his team-mates, he knows how to occupy the box well and he'll know how to be the reference point in our attack.

"I spoke to him on the phone, he's very fired up and he can't wait to train with us, just like I can't wait to coach him."
