Profile: Zlatan Ibrahimovic



There’s very little to say about Ibrahimovic that hasn’t already been said. He may not be the most popular player in the world, and he may not be collecting the accolades this year as Mr. Ronaldo is doing, but there is no denying the talent of Ibrahimovic. The tall Swede has some of the best tricks in any book of tricks. Since his days with Malmo, he has been mesmerizing fans and players alike.

Ibrahimovic is a player that enjoys playing the game, the way Ronaldinho used to enjoy the game. He threatens to score every time he touches the ball. In a recent game he pulled a tricky pass out of his bag that urged the fans and players on the field to applaud him. No other player has his type of charisma. To add to the charisma, he has the technical skills to do anything with the ball he pleases. He may not always score when he should, but Ibrahimovic is a player that is at the top of his technical best and threatens to get better with each passing year.
