Zlatan Ibrahimovic is relishing the opportunity to mentor Manchester United’s youngsters, 12 years after entering a Juventus dressing room that was littered with big names.
Jose Mourinho said earlier this month that the Swedish striker is “like a magnet” in the Aon Training Complex canteen, where the players have flocked around their iconic team-mate at meal times.
Ibrahimovic scored twice during Friday night’s Premier League victory over Southampton and, speaking to ManUtd.com and the Manchester Evening News at Old Trafford, the 34-year-old striker discussed his appreciation for being an elder statesman and how that contrasts with his public image.
