He has seen others and that should probably not disturb him.
But Zlatan Ibrahimovic is causing controversy in Italy.
The AC Milan striker was seen seated at a table in a Milan restaurant on Sunday with a few other guests.
The restaurant was not supposed to be able to accommodate customers due to anti-Covid restrictions.
The former PSG player was of course photographed and it was broadcast on social networks which does not fail to cause some emotion in Italy.

In this photo released by the site specializing in people Fanpage.it, the star striker of AC Milan is installed with other people, without a mask, around a table where a few glasses are placed.
According to the site, the photo was taken at noon on Sunday when restaurants across Italy are currently only allowed to sell "take out".
"It was a private meeting, with a small number of people"
The owner of the establishment, contacted by the site, assured that no one had lunched, neither Ibrahimovic nor his neighbors at the table: “It was a thing between friends, we are friends and from time to time we see each other at me when it's not with other friends, ”he said.
Faced with the controversy aroused in the country, the entourage of veteran Rossonero (39 years old, 118 selections) used the pretext of “a working meeting”
.
"It was a private meeting, with a small number of people," said a relative of the player.
As a reminder, Zlatan Ibrahimovic knows the risks associated with the virus.
He himself was affected by the Covid-19 in September 2020 and had advocated, this fall, respect for the rules of distancing and the wearing of a mask, in a video broadcast by the Lombardy region.
