1) Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Now Manchester United have gone and signed the one and only Zlatan, the lone footballer on whom bust ups and controversies seem legit. Never one to stand down or mask his thoughts, Zlatan has incurred the wrath of many a face associated with football with his brash, outspoken personality.
Legend goes that when Zlatan was playing in Sweden for Malmo, he came extremely close to signing for premier league giants Arsenal. There was only one glitch. The manager of Arsenal, Arsene Wenger wanted Ibra to undergo a trial with the club, pretty common practice anywhere in football. For any other 17-year-old footballer, this would have been dream news but this is Zlatan we are talking about. The Swedish striker reportedly went up to Arsene Wenger, one of the most respected names in football and said, “Zlatan doesn't do auditions!”, the cheek of it all!
Zlatan has been involved in feuds with managers, players and team mates at regular intervals throughout a career spanning more than fifteen years making him an indispensable part of this list!
It will be very interesting to see what shenanigans Manchester United will get up to when they pull on the Zlatan t-shirt for the 2016-17 season. One things is sure, there’s gonna be fireworks! And a lot of them at that!!
