Ibrahimovic's EFL Cup win aimed at his Premier League doubters - Raiola

The agent believes the Swede has delivered a definitive answer to questions whether he would succeed in England following his brace in Sunday's final

Zlatan Ibrahimovic's starring role in Manchester United's EFL Cup win is proof to his doubters who claimed he would never succeed in the Premier League, says agent Mino Riola.

The Swede bagged a brace to fire Jose Mourinho's men to a 3-2 triumph over Southampton at Wembley on Saturday, ensuring the Red Devils lifted their first piece of silverware this season.

The cup also represents Ibrahimovic's first title secured on English soil, a matter of months after the 35-year-old moved to Old Trafford on a free from Paris Saint-Germain.
