Video: Zlatan Ibrahimovic involved in a heated exchange with Swedish journalist

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is happy to stay with PSG despite receiving offer from AC Milan

Paris Saint German forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic has a wide known reputation for his controversial and at the same time fun interviews where he likes to take on the reporters. But this time, it was different as he got himself involved in a heated exchange with a journalist on Tuesday ahead of the Sweden’s Euro 2016 qualifying match against Russia.

The 33-year-old owned the journalist when asked about his off-field business activities at the Sweden press conference. This is not the first time Zlatan has had a clash with journalist Olof Lundh from TV4. When the striker was asked about his perfume and Dressmann clothing collection, Zlatan replied:

“I’m not allowed to earn money according to you. Every time something happens you say: ‘Doesn’t he have enough money?’ Isn’t that true?”

The exchange continued and Lundh denied of having criticised about Zlatan’s income.

“When the thing with Dressmann came up you said: ‘He’s got enough money. He doesn’t have to do this.” added the Swedish striker.

“Whatever, whatever, whatever. Believe me, I don’t need the money. I’m doing it because it’s fun. These projects are fun to work with. It’s new adventures for me. When I’m doing well and you feel a sting from it, then I’m enjoying myself even more … It’s the same as when I’m playing football – I get an extra kick out of it if it hurts you. That’s the best feeling,”

Here’s Zlatan’s full interview with Olof Lundh:

Zlatan was offered to return back to Milan

Zlatan was further asked about his decision to decline the offer from his previous club AC Milan during the transfer window.

“It was concrete from their side and they showed great interest, but I said from the beginning that I am staying at PSG, I’m happy there,” he continued

“I take it as a compliment that there is still interest in me. It means I’m still performing. I take it as positive. When you get a firm offer or a level of interest that is serious you think about it seriously. It’s not like I call a club and say ‘I’m coming’ – there has to be interest from the other side.”
