#1 The Zlatan Ibrahimovic of IPL
If you guess what this is all about, there is something called loyalty. There are few players who have played a single club throughout their career and then, there are players who have changed clubs every two seasons. Zlatan Ibrahimovic falls in the second category.
From Malmo to Ajax to Juventus to Inter Milan to Barcelona to AC Milan to Paris Saint-Germain to Manchester United, eight different clubs were lucky to have Zlatan play for them in his 18-year long glorious career.
Though there are players who have played for more clubs than the Swede, he is being considered because he is Zlatan (actually, no one cares about the rest). Similarly, in IPL, we have players playing for multiple teams over the last ten seasons.
The likes of Parthiv Patel, Thisara Perera (do you actually care about him?) and Aaron Finch have played for six different teams in the last 10 seasons. Coming to more prominent names, Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh has played for five different teams as the franchises like to play hot potato with the dashing southpaw.
Kings XI Punjab, Sahara Pune Warriors, RCB, Delhi Daredevils, Sunrisers Hyderabad and most likely a new team in the next IPL, Yuvraj Singh is no less than Zlatan (Shouldn't Yuvraj be blessed to be in the same sentence as Zlatan?) when it comes to changing teams.
If he has played for five different teams in ten seasons (basically nine seasons as he missed one season due to Cancer), just imagine how many teams he would have played for if there was a trade window in the IPL like the transfer windows for the Football clubs.
All hail ''The King' Zlatan'. But, why? Because he is Zlatan.
