In the interview with the Daily Mirror, Zlatan Ibrahimovic discussed why he never played in the Premier League and shared his opinions about the league. He mentioned that he had the opportunity to join Arsenal earlier in his career but opted for Ajax instead. Ibrahimovic expressed his reluctance to go on trial at Arsenal and joked about who should have more regrets about the decision.
He then made remarks about his performance against England in a friendly match in November 2012, where he scored a memorable goal and netted a quadruple. Ibrahimovic emphasized that he outshone the English players on that occasion and suggested that people should remember that it was “the Zlatan show.”
While acknowledging the quality of the Premier League and its top teams, Ibrahimovic stated confidently that if he had played there, he would have dominated, as he has done in other leagues. He concluded by asserting his belief in his abilities and downplaying his time in La Liga with Barcelona.
