Former striker of Inter, AC Milan, Paris Saint-Germain, Barcelona and the Swedish national team Zlatan Ibrahimovic in a conversation with journalist Piers Morgan called himself the most complete player in history.
The 41-year-old Swede said:
I’m the most complete player that ever exists. Skills and all this. I had the honor and luck to win 24 trophies and collective trophies; some individual, because the individual comes with the collective. If the collective does good, then the individual will do good. But when we talk about only the players, the ability, no, I think…100%. No joking.
Ibrahimovic, whose last club was AC Milan, officially announced the end of his career as a professional player to the fans on June 5, after the meeting of the 38th round of the season-2022/2023 Serie A with Verona (3:1). Last season, the star forward played four games for the Rossoneri and scored one goal.
On June 26, in a conversation with Sport Mediaset, the legendary striker didn't rule out resuming his career, noting that he could continue to play for AC Milan. On September 27, Calciomercato published the news that Milan's owner, Gerry Cardinale, considers Ibrahimovic's candidacy for the post of sporting director.
