Zlatan Ibrahimovic posts defiant message to Manchester United's fans following season-ending knee injury: 'Giving up is not an option'

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has posted a heartfelt message to Manchester United's fans, thanking them for their support in the wake of his season-ending knee injury.

Ibrahimovic was ruled out for the remainder of the season after suffering significant knee ligament damage during the 2-1 win over Anderlecht in midweek.

The injury has thrown the striker's Old Trafford future into serious doubt, with his current contract due to expire in the summer.
