'If you're on Zlatan's team and you lose, you’re dead' - Shaw recalls Man Utd training sessions with 'unbelievable' Ibrahimovic

The defender has described his experience of working alongside the mercurial striker, who was never afraid to "put his foot down" at Old Trafford

Zlatan Ibrahimovic "got the best out of everyone" during his time at Manchester United, according to Luke Shaw, who says the Swede would never tolerate anyone slacking off in training.

Jose Mourinho lured the Swedish forward to Old Trafford on a free transfer in the summer of 2016, reuniting with the man who helped him win his first Serie A title with Inter seven years earlier.

Ibrahimovic had also enjoyed successful spells at Ajax, Juventus, Barcelona, AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain prior to his arrival in Manchester, and was able to transfer his impressive form in front of goal to the Premier League seamlessly.
