Sweden captain Zlatan Ibrahimovic has completed his 23 million euro move to Paris Saint Germain, extending his record as the world’s most expensive player. During a 13-year career the striker has now changed hands for a combined total of over 190 million euros. He becomes PSG’s latest big-money signing after they bought Thiago Silva, also from Milan, and Napoli’s Ezequiel Lavezzi. And he’s been explaining why he joined the Parisian revolution:
Under their new Qatari owners, PSG spent over 100 million euros last season but fell just short in Ligue 1. Sporting director Leonardo and head coach Carlo Ancelotti will hope to address that this term.
Ibrahimovic leaves Milan after two years at the San Siro that saw him score 46 goals and win a sixth Serie A title. He says he leaves the Italian giants on good terms.
“The biggest deal in this club’s history” – Leonardo (PSG sporting director)
“PSG never had a superstar” – Nasser al Khelaifi (PSG main shareholder)
