It didn't take long for Zlatan Ibrahimovic to conquer the Premier League. The Swedish striker joined Manchester United on a free transfer after his contract with Paris St Germain, he is off to an excellent start under Mourinho. His teammates have been very impressed with his work ethic, this is how Ander Herrera desvribed him in an interview to the Daily Mail:
"He doesn’t lose one session, He trains every day at his best, trying to get everyone at their highest level.
‘He is very, very aggressive and demanding but in a good way because every day he wants to win. He wants everyone with him to keep working. We are very lucky to have Zlatan with us.
‘If you see a game and you didn’t know Zlatan’s age, you could think he was only 28 or 29. You see the way he behaves. The way he trains even before the session, he is always stretching, taking care of his body, so that is the way a professional player has to behave.’
Manager Jose Mourinho puts Ibrahimovic’s longevity down in part to an interest in martial arts — he is a black belt in taekwondo — with Herrera adding: ‘I haven’t done karate but I wish I could be as supple as he is!’
