Zlatan Ibrahimovic it has always been characterized by being clear and direct. He does not hide or walk with half measures when he gives interviews, such as the last one that has been published this Sunday in the ‘Gazzetta dello Sport’, an interesting talk in which the veteran Swedish striker leaves several pearls: a new stick for Pep Guardiola and messages to Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
«I have played in many clubs and I have respect for all. But Milan is the club where I feel at home. I go to Milanello every morning and I’m in no rush to get home. This is how I felt the first time I came to Milan in 2010. They told me: ‘You are at home, do what you want but you have to give results’. I liked this because I could be myself and at the same time played for one of the biggest clubs in the world. That is why for me Milan is to be at the top ”, he says about his current club, in which he is a key player despite his age.
Best eleven and best goal
He also talks about his past at Can Barça and goes back to stoking Guardiola, with whom he did not make good friends at the Camp Nou: «Barcelona was a team of phenomena: first six months up, then because of the coach (Guardiola) no it was good…”. There he coincided with Messi, who curiously does not include in his ideal eleven, something quite strange as it is also that he does not put Cristiano Ronaldo among the best and yes Xavi Hernández. This is Ibra’s ideal eleven: Buffon; Maicon, Nesta, Cannavaro, Maxwell; Viera, Xavi, Nedved, Zidane; Ronaldo y Maradona.
Finally, asked about the best goal of his career and he does not doubt that it is the one he scored with Sweden against England eight years ago: «My goal against England in 2012. Backwards from 40 meters. Above. That’s my vision of a bike kick. And then there are the bicycles that I stole when I was young, not one, many: to go to training I had to do 7 kilometers, I had no money to buy one and if I found one on the street, I would ‘borrow’ it and then return it » .
