Zlatan Ibrahimovic explains why he enjoyed silencing his 'haters' at Manchester United

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has admitted he enjoyed silencing his “haters” during his time at Manchester United.

The Swedish striker joined United from Paris Saint-Germain back in 2016, and spent just over a year-and-a-half at Old Trafford. During his time with the Reds, he helped the club win both the Carabao Cup and Europa League, scoring in the final of the former.

Despite claiming 13 league titles with Ajax, Juventus, Inter Milan, AC Milan and PSG prior to making the move to United, his arrival in the Premier League was met with scepticism from some quarters. Many questioned whether Ibrahimovic would be able to deal with the rigours of English football, having joined late in his career after spending the last four years in France, which is generally seen as a less competitive league.
