'My sons asked me to play in England, but this time I'm the boss' - Zlatan on Man Utd renewal

The star striker says he will only stay at United if he still feels he has something to offer, even after leading them to EFL Cup glory on Sunday

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed that it was his two sons who persuaded him to test himself in the Premier League, but warns that he’ll be the one deciding whether to stay at Manchester United next season.

The Swede took his total to 26 goals this term with a match-winning brace in Sunday’s EFL Cup final against Southampton and, while manager Jose Mourinho insisted he will not beg Ibrahimovic to stay on for a second campaign in 2017-18, he did invite fans to “go to the door of his house and stay there all night and ask him to stay”.
