We know Zlatan likes having good teammates, that's what happens when you win the league pretty much every year of your career.
We did not know how much until we saw the first sentence of this ESPN article:
Mino Raiola has revealed that Zlatan Ibrahimovic jokingly threatened to "break his legs" if he had allowed Paul Pogba to join any other club besides Manchester United.
Yeah, Zlatan was joking, sure.
Mino Raiola, by the way, is Zlatan's agent, and also Pogba's agent, and also Henrikh Mkhitaryan's agent.
This is the exact (translated) quote from Dutch newspaper de Volkskrant:
"Zlatan told me, 'Do not transfer Pogba elsewhere or I will break your legs'.”
Yes, what a jokester that Zlatan is. Surely the hypercompetitive striker with an honorary black belt in Tae Kwon Do would never have done something as rash as break his agent and friend's legs over something as trifling as which team Paul Pogba ended up at.
Right?
