Age is just a number for the legend that is Zlatan Ibrahimovic. He is one of the few footballers who walks the talk. He has performances and achievements to go with his tall claims and he is, quite literally, the only person who "Dares to Zlatan".

Ibrahimovic's career speaks for itself. He has been a journeyman with a track record of absolutely dominating wherever he goes, and he has his burgeoning trophy cabinet to show for it. His individual ability is freakish in its own right and he is known for his powerful shooting, finishing skills, positioning and physicality in the box, to say nothing of his creative and mind-boggling goals. Currently, Ibrahimovic is the third most decorated active player in world football - with 32 trophies.

He has won the Eredivisie twice with Ajax, the Serie A four times, the La Liga, Ligue 1 and Europa League once each - along with several other awards such as EFL Cup, Community Shield, Club World Cup, Supercopa de Espana, et al.

These days, Ibrahimovic can be seen ripping the American defenses open with LA Galaxy. His claims are showing no signs of sobering down, but then again, neither are his goals, so all is good in the King's Kingdom. Here is a video of his latest eye-popping strike for the Galaxy, a supreme example of his long-range striking ability, on his debut for the club. A debut where he introduced himself to the Americans in fitting fashion. An introduction fit for a King.
