About Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Zlatan Ibrahimovi is a Swedish professional football player who plays as a striker for Serie A club AC Milan and the Sweden national team. Ibrahimovi is well known for his dexterous attacks and volleys, strong long-range shots, and superb technique and ball control. With 34 titles in his career, he is one of the most decorated active footballers in the world and is considered as one of the best attackers of all time.
Ibrahimovi joined with Ajax two years after starting his career with Malmö FF, where he established himself as one of the continent’s most promising forwards. He left two years later to go with Juventus and then joined Inter Milan in 2006, where he won three straight Serie A championships. He relocated to Barcelona in one of the most costly transfers ever in the summer of 2009.
After just one season, he joined Milan, a rival of Inter, and then relocated back to Italy. In his first season with them, he captured the Serie A championship. Ibrahimovi joined Paris Saint-Germain in 2012, helping them win their first Ligue 1 championship in 19 years and quickly became a key player in their hegemony in French football. During his four-season stint in France, he won four straight Ligue 1 championships, led the league in scoring three times, and established himself as PSG’s all-time leading scorer. He made a free transfer to Manchester United in 2016 and earned his first European award during his rookie campaign. Ibrahimovi left Milan in 2018 to join the LA Galaxy before returning in 2020 and earning his fifth Serie A championship in 2022.
Over the course of a 20-year international career, Ibrahimovi is one of just eleven players who have made 100 or more appearances for the Swedish national team. With 62 goals, he holds the record for most goals scored in a nation. He competed for Sweden at the 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016 UEFA European Championships in addition to the 2002 and 2006 FIFA World Cups. He received the Swedish player of the year award, Guldbollen (the Golden Ball), a record 12 times, including 10 times in a row from 2007 to 2016. Ibrahimovi’s 35-yard bicycle kick goal against England for Sweden won the 2013 FIFA Puskás Award and is frequently cited as one of the all-time greats.
Ibrahimovi was named to the UEFA Team of the Year in 2007, 2009, 2013, and 2014 as well as the FIFA FIFPro World XI in 2013. In 2013, he reached a career-high fourth place finish for the FIFA Ballon d’Or. He was considered the third-greatest player who never won the UEFA Champions League by FourFourTwo magazine in 2019. In 2015, UEFA listed him as the finest player who never won the UEFA Champions League. After tennis player Björn Borg, he was ranked as the second-greatest Swedish athlete of all time in December 2014 by the Swedish daily Dagens Nyheter. Ibrahimovi is well known for his brazen demeanor off the field, as well as for making bold statements and referring to himself in the third person.
