Zlatan Ibrahimovic is arguably one of Europe’s most successful nomadic strikers. From his youthful days at Ajax, to his rise and fall out with Pep Guardiola and finding his form back in Manchester, he has always delivered in every team he played for.
He signed a one-year deal with Man United last season, scoring 28 goals in only 46 appearances all season.
However, he was sidelined with a horrific knee injury he got in a crucial Europa League clash.
Man United decided not to extend his contract since his injury was considered ‘season-ending’, possibly career-ending. He was however allowed to use Manchester United’s facilities for the rest of his recovery period and with immense progress being made in terms of his recovery, he might just sign an extension.

This is according to manager Jose Mourinho who said, “If the decision is to stay and wait until December - he can't be back until them - why not wait? We are speaking and changing ideas.”
Zlatan Ibrahimovic was so influential to Man United’s unbeaten run in the league, scoring in the EFL Cup final twice.
After acquiring the signatures of Romelu Lukaku and Victor Lindelof, it is rumoured that Mourinho still wants to sign two more players, with Ivan Perisic and Eric Dier being the first options.
Under Mourinho, United players have admitted that a good feeling has returned to the squad and it will be reflected in their performances once the season starts.
With Manchester United back among the English clubs back in the Champions League, it is no doubt that players with class who crave Champions League football will arrive at the club sooner or later.
