Zlatan Ibrahimovic showed off his martial arts skills on Sunday as he demonstrated his return to fitness.

It was feared Ibrahimovic would never play again after suffering a serious knee injury in Manchester United's Europa League win over Anderlecht in April.

But the 35-year-old has clearly recovered from the cruciate ligament damage and is poised to re-sign for United later this season, possibly this month.
