Manchester United star Zlatan Ibrahimovic sorry for being ruled out of Arsenal clash due to suspension

Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has apologised for landing the suspension that will rule him out of his side's clash with Arsenal a week on Saturday.

A 76th-minute tangle with Leroy Fer led to Ibrahimovic picking up his fifth yellow card of the season in Sunday's 3-1 victory at Swansea - a match in which the 35-year-old Swede scored twice.

It means he will be serving a one-game ban when the Gunners visit Old Trafford on November 19.

And Ibrahimovic told MUTV: "You know what? Every time I try to play my game by being strong and going into the tackles, or whatever it is, I get a yellow card.
