Zlatan Ibrahimovic teases fans by donning football boots in bed on his road to recovery from injury

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is a man who is desperate to return to the football field.

So much so, in fact, that the Swede posted a bizarre video of himself wearing football boots in bed.

The striker has been sidelined after he suffered a cruciate ligament injury in the Europa League semi-final against Celta Vigo and is expected to be out of action until the start of 2018 — and clearly it's getting to him already.
