"I am football"(Jag är Fotboll) is the new book by Zlatan Ibrahimovic who returns in particular behind the scenes of his transfer to PSG, in 2012. He confirms that he did not want to come to France, as stated AftonBladet, the Swedish daily that publishes the good sheets of the book, co-written with the journalist Mats Olsson.
"Galliani had told me: "Do not worry Zlatan, we will not sell you". A few weeks later, I was in my house in Vaxholm (a city in Sweden, ed), I had just made an exit jetski when I saw that I had five missed Mino calls (Raiola, his agent), "says Ibrahimovic. The agent asks to meet his player. Refusal of the Swede, who prefers to call it. ""Okay" replied Mino. "Leonardo will call you". Leonardo? What Leonardo? Then suddenly I realize, he tells me about Leonardo, the sports director of PSG. I then answer to Mino: "Listen, I will not answer his call, Galliani has confirmed to me that he will not sell me". Then, Mino simply told me: "I know, but they've sold you already."
The attacker, very angry at his president at the time, said he tried to defeat the transfer before finally giving in: "When I spoke to Mino that summer, I told him that we were going to make it difficult for PSG. I wanted to keep my Milan salary and I wanted them (Parisians) to say something like: "Dude, you exaggerate, you ask too much ". I wanted to use that for them to withdraw. So I told Mino to write down everything I wanted. I listed all my wishes and when I finished, I told Helena (his companion, note) that they would never accept that, that it was impossible. Twenty minutes later, Mino called me back and said: "You have everything you asked for". After that, there was no turning back so I told him "ok, prepare everything". I am a man of my word. When I say something, I do it. "
Arrived at PSG at the beginning of the Qatari era, Zlatan Ibrahimovic remained four years at the Paris club. He scored 156 goals in 180 games.
