Zlat spat with Sky journalist ‘cleared up’

A post-match row between Zlatan Ibrahimovic and a female journalist has overshadowed AC Milan’s 2-0 win over Lecce at San Siro on Sunday.

Ibrahimovic was involved in an angry exchange with Sky journalist Vera Spadini, during which television pictures appeared to show him swearing at her.

On Sunday Milan tried to pour cold water on the incident, releasing a statement claiming the dispute had been “cleared up” in a phone call between the duo.
