Ibrahimovic slams 'kindergarten-level' vandals who attacked AC Milan forward's statue in Malmo

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has spoken out about the continued vandalisation of his statue in Malmo, saying the culprits are at u200ba "kindergarten level."

The legendary striker had a statue unveiled in his hometown last year, but fans in the Swedish city did not react well to the news that Ibrahimovic had become a part-owner of rivals Hammarby.

Video emerged on social media in November of fans setting the statue on fire, the first of many attempts to vandalise the statue outside of Malmo's Swedbank Stadion.
