Zlatan Ibrahimovic Says Europa League Schedule Is 'Killing' Him After Zorya Win

Manchester United's Zlatan Ibrahimovic has said playing in the Europa League is "killing" him.

Ibrahimovic was part of the United side that won 2-0 against Zorya Luhansk in Ukraine on Thursday, a result that ensured they progressed to the knockout stages of the competition.

But per the Sun (h/t Tom Doyle of the London Evening Standard), the 35-year-old striker said the schedule hasn't sat well with him: "We don't have a lot of rest. These Thursdays are killing us, especially me. Now we have one day less to recover before we face Spurs.
