Carlo Ancelotti managed to get the best out of Zlatan Ibrahimovic at PSG

Paris Saint-Germain are one of the biggest clubs in Europe today and they owe much of their current standing to Carlo Ancelotti and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The Italian who took over from Antoine Kombouare in 2011 spent just one and a half seasons at the French capital, but he managed to guide them to their first Ligue 1 title since 1994 in the 2012/13 season.

Key to PSG's success was Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The big Swede who was bought from AC Milan proved to be an immediate success, plundering goals for fun and winning the Ligue 1 golden boot easily. In fact, at times the French league looked like it was too easy for Zlatan as the legendary striker often made a mockery of defences and scored some truly spectacular goals.

Even legendary French striker Jean-Pierre Papin could not stop gushing about the big Swede. Speaking in 2012, the Frenchman said;

"We haven't had a goalscorer like him in France for a long time. He is on a different planet to anyone else."

Zlatan Ibrahimovic certainly played a crucial role in Ancelotti's success at PSG.
