BASKING RIDGE, N.J. — One of the best soccer players of his generation, former Swedish international Zlatan Ibrahimovic still believes that the United States model for player development should look and feel different. The now AC Milan executive said that playing soccer in the United States faces the unique challenge of being expensive to play.
Ibrahimovic made his comments as part of a media event at The Pingry School to promote AC Milan‘s tour of the United States. His most recent thoughts about American soccer echo similar comments he made while as a player for the LA Galaxy.
