Manchester United ‘legend’ Zlatan Ibrahimovic says the Premier League is begging him to stay amid reports that he has agreed to join LA Galaxy. His one-year contract expires at the end of the season and his future is still up in the air. Just as he does not do trials, he also suggested that he is not happy with United’s position as he is used to being a league winner and not battling to leave sixth position.
“I came here as a 35-year-old. Everybody thought I was in a wheelchair. What happened? The lion is still alive and that’s the way it is.
“I have proved what everyone has said is wrong. I don’t hear the talk anymore, it is not fun anymore, because the haters became like fans and even like believers.
“I am 35, 36 in a couple of months, which is proven as just a number. I keep going and make the other one look older than me.
“I know the Premier League is begging me to stay. I came here, I said I needed one year and it took me three months, what I wanted.
“How I feel today, I don’t know if I will feel like this next year.”
He also expressed his disappointment at the Red Devil’s present league position
“I am a lion. The table is not lying. The team is where it is because it is where it is,” he said.
“Top four for me … the last time I came second I don’t even remember it, probably in Milan. It was the first position of the last ones. I don’t really like. It is a failure.
“Whatever comes after the first one is a failure. But we still have other trophies to play for. We are still doing the best we can, and we still want more.”
