The Swedish hero Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been always known for that swaggy attitude towards his off the pitch antiques. Now, in a recent interview, the former Barcelona and Juventus forward revealed the only thing he misses from his time with the French Champions, PSG.
Zlatan, who made 180 appearances during his four years of tenure with the club, has stated that he misses his wages he used to receive from the Ligue 1 outfit. The former Swedish international joined the Devils this summer and made an instant impact as he bagged 4 goals in his 4 competitive games for the club. Speaking to French channel SFR ahead of the Derby clash, the 34-year-old named the only thing he misses:
“I miss my last salary from Paris,” Ibrahimovic said, grinning. “That is what I miss.”
Both the clubs, PSG and Manchester United, do not confirm their player’s salary, but according to ESPN, the Big Swede is currently earning somewhere around £220,000 (€260,000) per week at Old Trafford, which is €30,000 less than what he used to earn with PSG (€290,000 a week).
Furthermore, he was also asked about PSG’s chances of the Champions League triumph and the attacker said:
“I don’t know. I think the team is very strong.
“They have bought some new players but their philosophy is the same, to win everything and push for the Champions League.”
