Is Ibrahimovic the best-ever free transfer?

As Zlatan Ibrahimovic continues to break records at Manchester United and vie for the Golden Boot, the question can be asked if he is the best free signing ever in the Premier League.

The 35-year-old arrived under the Bosman ruling from Paris-Saint Germain, when his contract expired in the French capital, and has been nothing short of sensational in the red shirt, with his late leveller against Liverpool last time out further endearing him to the Old Trafford faithful.

So is he the greatest free transfer since 1992? There is, naturally, plenty of competition for that accolade.
