Zlatan Ibrahimović, Sweden’s most famous soccer player, grew from somewhat humble beginnings and took the soccer world by storm. Since his career started in 1996, he has been almost unstoppable.
With 420 goals scored in just 723 matches, it is hardly surprising that Zlatan is the favorite choice of many betting apps for first scorer in any game he starts. This colorful character is bound to deliver some brilliant plays, and it is a pretty clear why he has become such a popular player.
He currently plays for Manchester United and helped the Red Devils win the EFL in 2017. Man U fans all agree that red is a color that looks great on Zlatan. They love him and his antics.
He is famously confident and not afraid to show it – he once said, “When you buy me, you are buying a Ferrari.” It’s pretty clear that modesty and Zlatan don’t go well together.
But, considering his record, who can blame him for being a bit cocky? He has also proved to be something of a savvy investor and has brought out his own clothing line and vitamin water.
He has proven that he has a somewhat quirky side as well – his purchase of a church in Stockholm for £8.5 million is an example of that.
How do things look for soccer’s golden boy? Things are looking good. He shows no signs of slowing down and seems to have settled in nicely with the Red Devils. Can we expect more stunning shows of skill? Most definitely.
A good source of fun, though, is watching his reactions during a game or listening to what smart comment he is going to come up with next. He is sometimes the hero of the day and sometimes very controversial, but one thing Zlatan never is, is boring.
That he will do something that is exciting in every game is a sure bet.
