Ibrahimovic: 'I want MLS!'

By Football Italia staff

Zlatan Ibrahimovic freezes Milan as he reveals that he would 'absolutely' like to play in Major League Soccer.

The Swedish giant is being aggressively targeted by the Rossoneri, but in an interview with Yahoo Sports, he said he would appreciate a more exotic destination.

"I would like to play in U.S., absolutely," said the 34-year-old. "I would like to play. Which team? Am I allowed to say that? No, I cannot say that.

"I think it would be an amazing experience. I see that soccer is growing a lot in U.S.

“I mean, I was here 10 years ago [and] soccer was not on the level that it is today, but it's growing.

“It's growing in the right direction and I want it to be on the level of Europe. It will come here.

"I think many want to come over here and play.

"Maybe not in the beginning of the career, like in the second part of the career [to] enjoy U.S. with the soccer at the same time and have the possibility to live here.”

Ibrahimovic also showcased his famous winning mentality as he revealed what his objectives would be.

"I don't want to be the player that comes because of my name.

“If I come, I want to bring results. Or else I will not come. To win trophies – that is what I play for. That is my job."

Ibrahimovic was thought to be closer to Milan as PSG reportedly offered €65m for Manchester United's Angel Di Maria and could be looking to recoup the expense.

But the Swede so far has been cryptic about his possible link with Milan.
