Lucas Moura would like to set the record straight regarding Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Lucas said that his PSG teammate is actually a nice guy, a far cry from his outspoken, incendiary public persona.
"He is very different from what people think - he is a very nice guy in real life," Lucas told French newsaper L'Equipe.
What? This is not what we were expecting at all. You mean Zlatan doesn't force his teammaates to call him "King Ibra" and give them wedgies? That's no fun.
"He treats everyone really well, but he has a profile that everyone knows about. He says what he thinks - if he does not like someone he lets them know. He is not trying to be popular," Lucas said.
Wait, Zlatan? Not trying to be popular? Where do you get these crazy ideas Lucas?
"On the field, he has that explosive behaviour. He complains, insults and all of that, but I think it's almost normal for a striker," Lucas said.
Actually, that's fair. Strikers are by and large lunatics.
