Klopp laughs off Ibrahimovic talk

During a recent interview with Sportbladet, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp laughed off the idea that the club would try to sign Zlatan Ibrahimovic following his departure from LA Galaxy. He joked that if the Swede had not played for Manchester United in the past then he would consider it, before suggesting that he isn’t sure whether or not Zlatan would want to play at the club due to the intensity levels on display at Anfield. 

It’s quite clear to see that Klopp demands some form of perfection within his Liverpool side, which is to be expected when you consider just how successful they’ve been as of late.  

Ibrahimovic certainly would’ve been able to bring something to this Liverpool side once upon a time, but it just doesn’t feel like they’ll be able to rely on him quite as much at this veteran stage of his career. Still, a return to Europe does seem likely at some stage.
