Zlatan Ibrahimovic ready to play against Minnesota United despite turf surface: "More than 50,000 is coming and I owe them to come"

LOS ANGELES – Zlatan Ibrahimoviu0107 will be available for selection for the LA Galaxy’s clash with Minnesota United, the striker confirmed on Thursday.

Los Angeles sit one point out of a postseason berth heading into their penultimate game of the regular season this Sunday at TCF Bank Stadium. More than 50,000 fans are expected for Sunday's match, but it's the stadium's unforgiving turf surface that could cause an issue for Ibrahimovic.

The Swedish star has led the way for the Galaxy this year with 21 goals and nine assists but has played just one match on turf this season, a brief cameo against Portland Timbers in early June.
