PSG players, we are almost positive, are very athletic human beings. Soccer is a very demanding game that requires strength, agility and stamina, plus coordination and intelligence. They are good at soccer, as evidenced by the fact that they play for one of the best clubs in the world. They have dedicated their lives (so far) to soccer. And they should stick to it, because they are clearly not ready for other sports.
In a move we have dubbed "the flying Zlatan," Zlatan Ibrahimovic gave John Terry a forearm-shiver Saturday when PSG met up with Chelsea in the International Champions Cup.
There were claims that this was an elbow from Zlatan, but he clearly uses his forearm and not his elbow.
What could John Terry have done to provoke the wrath of Zlatan?
Hold on to your hats, America. In the coming years, it looks like MLS is set to get a lot more Swedish. And awesome.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic told reporters Thursday that he would like to go to MLS at some point. The 33-year-old striker has one more year on his contract at Paris Saint-Germain.
He told Yahoo Sports:
While he’s yet to dot his two I’s, it’s as certain as low wages at Walmart that Angel di Maria will sign a contract with Paris St Germain in the coming days. Less than 12 months after shelling out a British record £59.7 million for the Argentine Champions League winner, Manchester United are expected to agree to a fee of around £45 million that will see the former Real Madrid midfielder cross the English Channel.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic says what he feels all of the time, and a lot of the time that involves letting someone know that he is better than them.
When asked who he thought was the best looking woman in the world, he responded, “I don’t know, but when I find her I will date her.”
He’s arrogant, there is no getting around that, but hearing his ignorance it is hard to not think of a famous Muhammad Ali quote: it’s not bragging if you can back it up.
There have been rumors abounding lately that a certain tall Swedish PSG striker is going to make a move to Manchester United.
(Jay Z voice) Let's end the speculation I'm talkin' to all of y'all.
Zlatan is not going to Manchester United. Zlatan doesn't like Louis van Gaal.
Here is a section of a Sports Illustrated interview from last year. (the whole interview is worth a read):
Lucas Moura would like to set the record straight regarding Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Lucas said that his PSG teammate is actually a nice guy, a far cry from his outspoken, incendiary public persona.
"He is very different from what people think - he is a very nice guy in real life," Lucas told French newsaper L'Equipe.
What? This is not what we were expecting at all. You mean Zlatan doesn't force his teammaates to call him "King Ibra" and give them wedgies? That's no fun.
Can’t wait for Eden Hazard to return to Stamford Bridge as reigning champion? Or Lionel Messi to break more records than anyone thought possible? Well look no further, Guinness and the International Champions Cup have you covered from July 'til August with top-flight clubs from multiple leagues battling in North America for the Champions Cup as they prepare for their domestic seasons.
Liverpool are, according to members of the press, close to signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic for $16 million from Paris St Germain. Can you believe it?? No, us neither.
Apparently there's a lady Zlatan, Kosovare Asllani, and she's going to play against the U.S. in the World Cup.
