5 players who could be playing their final major tournament at Euro 2016

#2 Zlatan Ibrahimovic – Sweden

Euro 2016 could well be Ibra’s last opportunity to make an impact at a major tournament.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is one of the greatest footballers in the world right now and perhaps Sweden’s greatest player of all-time. The 35-year-old has been in sublime form over the past couple of years with PSG. This season, he was at his prolific best for PSG as he scored 50 goals across all competitions, helping the Parc des Princes outfit to a treble of the league, the Coupe de France and the Coupe de la Ligue.

Ibrahimovic has also been in good touch with Sweden as he scored 11 goals during the Euro 2016 qualifying campaign including three goals in the two-legged playoff against neighbours and arch-rivals Denmark. Sweden will be banking on Ibra’s goal scoring ability to take them through a very difficult group in Euro 2016 which consists of powerhouses Belgium and Italy.

Euro 2016 will most likely be Ibra’s last shot to make an impact on a major tournament with Sweden as the Blagult have been drawn in the toughest group of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers which includes the likes of France and Netherlands. Hence, it seems likely that Sweden could fail to qualify for the World Cup for a third successive time and by the time Euro 2020 is around the corner, Ibra will be 39 and might not be in the best of shape but who knows what might happen.
