Zlatan’s Fondness for Manchester United
Zlatan has always expressed his affection for Manchester United. In a conversation with former United player Bojan Djordjic in 2018, he insisted, “I gave as much as I could for as long as I could; when I got injured, I got support in a different way. They always stood behind me and my teammates. They are special: everywhere I see red, I think about United. It will remain in history and my career; when I look back at my time with United, I will do it with a smile. I wish them all the best in the future.“
