Zlatan Ibrahimovi

Is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a striker for Ligue 1


club Paris Saint-Germain and the Swedish national team for which he
is captain. Ibrahimovi started his career at Malm FF in the late
1990s under Roland Andersson. He was signed by Ajax, and made a
name for himself under Ronald Koeman. He later signed with Juventus
for 16 million. Ibrahimovi gained fame in Serie A, benefiting from
his strike partnership with David Trezeguet.
In 2006, Ibrahimovi signed with league rival Inter Milan, where he
won individual awards such as the Italian Oscar del Calcio and the
Swedish Guldbollen, and was named in the 2007 and 2009 UEFA Team
of the Year, in addition to finishing as the league's highest scorer in
200809 while winning three straight Scudetti. In the summer of
2009, he transferred to Barcelona. His time at Barcelona was shortlived, however, moving back to Serie A football with A.C. Milan the
following season, in a deal which made him one of the highest paid
footballers in the world[2] and cost the Italian club 24 million. He
signed a three-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain in July 2012.
With his playing style compared to Dutch legend Marco van Basten,
Ibrahimovi is regarded to be one of the best footballers of his
generation. In 2012, he was ranked 5th in The Guardian's 100 Best
Footballers in the world
