The agent of Swede legend Zlatan Ibrahimovic – Mino Raiola, has revealed that Serie A side Napoli could be Ibra’s next destination after leaving Manchester United.
So far this season, Ibrahimovic who arrived over the summer, has scored 19 goals in 31 games.
It was confirmed earlier this season that the 35-year-old would receive a one-year extension on his existing contract at United which would keep him at Old Trafford until 2018.
However, Raiola speaking earlier this week indicates that Man United may not be Ibrahimovic’s final destination before he finally retire from professional football.
“Zlatan has always been in love with the city of Naples and [Napoli president Aurelio] De Laurentiis has got to know him” Raiola said.
Ibrahimovic has previously talked about a desire to spend the latter stages of his career at Napoli in Italy, revealing his love of the scenic city as a reason behind wanting to move there.
He however chose to challenge himself and move to United instead – in keeping with his serial winning mentality. We are still looking whether he will want to continue fighting at the top after two years in the English Premier League. But we think for Ibrahimovic, despite his age and bulging trophy cabinet, is not yet finished.
