For more than a decade now, there are football players who do extraordinary stuffs on the pitch, score unimaginable goals and make speeches that provoke even the gods, one of such players is Zlatan Ibrahimovic. I can't even tell if there is any other player that beats him at what we see him do, because he appears to be the best at it. Talk about a man who sees himself as god and rarely praises others, that's Zlatan. Whatever you think you can do, IBRA will always say he is the best and he needs no awards to certify that fact. He is one of the spectacles to behold as a football fan and his short absence from European football left an unfilled space till now. We're talking about a man who have played in almost all the top clubs across the top Five leagues in Europe. Talk about Barcelona, PSG, Manchester United, AC Milan, Ajax etc. No one to mesmerize us with bombshell goals or mouthwatering bicycle kicks. You can talk about his thunderstorm outside 18 shots which pierces through the air untramelled like spear till it buries itself in the back of the net.
Though he has been replicating his usual heroics in the US where he was playing for LA Galaxy in the Major Soccer League, someone like me never get to watch him play those games. So I will have to stream the highlights on YouTube and read what I can grab from the headlines. Ibrahimovic is a man you will like to follow his daily lifestyle both on the pitch and outside his football career. He always got something spectacular to magnet your attention, and most times, stuffs that you will ordinarily hate other humans for, becomes the reason why you like him. I call him the "Big Dog." Few days ago, Ibrahimovic announced his retirement from LA Galaxy in US major soccer league where he has been plying his trade for the past two seasons. Zlatan have made his mark and feels it's time to take his career tour to somewhere else.
The Impressive Sweden international scored a whooping 52 goals for LA Galaxy after making 58 appearances for the club, now that's Zlatan and he only gets better with age. He is 38 and still feels he still got some magic in his boots. Lots of sports fans have continued to wonder where will be Zlatan's next port of call, however, media rumours are saying the wonder goal scorer could be heading back to Seria A to continue his awesome career. While many are saying he is likely to ink his signature for Milan, it seems the Big Dog might be pitching his tent with Bologna, judging from what Bologna's Sporting Director said. “With just a month and a half to go before the transfer market opens, Ibrahimovic and the coach already have a very strong relationship. They spoke to each other. He expressed an openness to the idea of coming to Bologna, but right now he's taking time to evaluate all the possibilities for his future after announcing his farewell to MLS. We are very fascinated by this situation, but it is clear that we are not in control of it 100 per cent. The choice is exclusively up to the player, we are just waiting. We're ready and we're more than positive," Bigon told Sky Italy. But then, whatever the case may be, the return of Zlatan to Seria A will not only bring more attention to the Italian league, but will now leave fans with something to chew on, especially as regards his dramas during the games and outside the pitch.
