Although PSG are one of Europe’s great clubs, Paris is not a football city in the way that Madrid is. Incredibly, he has been booed by Real fans in the recent past, while his relationship with Jose Mourinho is reportedly fractious and, therefore, complicates a move to Manchester.
In France, there are neither of these obstacles – he would arrive as the darling of the Parc, where his flair and scoring power would be heartily welcomed by the fans. Moreover, he would find himself under less scrutiny and, therefore, less pressure. He could live a more normal life in the French capital, which is certainly something that Ibrahimovic thrived under.

Paris, the fashion capital of the world, is a city that is often enjoyed by the partners of the players, too.
