Zlatan Ibrahimovic may not have spent too long at Manchester United – but their ‘crazy’ fans left a lasting impression on him.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 42-year-old<\/a> achieved cult status amongst supporters during his brief spell at Old Trafford between 2016-2018.<\/p>\n

Joining on a free from Paris Saint-Germain, the maverick striker scored 29 goals in 53 matches in all competitions.<\/p>\n

His opening season saw him win three trophies, with United<\/a> triumphing in the League Cup, Europa League and Community Shield.<\/p>\n

Ibrahimovic marked his debut with a Wembley goal against Leicester in the annual curtain-raiser.<\/p>\n

And he then bagged himself a double at the Home of Football in the thrilling 3-2 League Cup final win over Southampton.<\/p>\n

An underwhelming second campaign followed, where he was limited to just seven matches, before having his contract terminated four months before the end of the season.<\/p>\n

But the X-rated song the United faithful had for the AC Milan icon lives long in his memory.<\/p>\n

While Ibrahimovic struggled with the heat of the chicken wings he tasted during a recent appearance on the Hot Ones<\/a>, the Swedish great had no trouble in naming his favourite chant from his illustrious career.<\/p>\n

He said: “I liked the United one, the United one I had was crazy, because when they started to sing, it was my first game, I scored that game [Community Shield vs Leicester].<\/p>\n

“They were like, ‘Six-foot five, hard as f***,’ and then they kept going.<\/p>\n

“I was like, ‘Whoa,’ this was something else, and they kept signing for 45 minutes, I was like, ‘Listen, I didn’t even start to play my game yet.’<\/p>\n

“When you get that support, you feel obviously more strong and you bring it with you and you just want to give back.<\/p>\n

“I tried to put on a show for the fans.”<\/p>\n

Zlatan’s iconic chant took aim at the club’s rivals Manchester City, who he scored against on his Manchester derby debut.<\/p>\n

It went: “Zlatan Ibrahimovic, he is a Swedish hero, on a free from PSG, he cost us f****** zero.<\/p>\n

“Six-foot five, hard as f***, he gets the Reds excited, stick your City up your a***, ‘Cos we are Man United.”<\/p>\n

Following his United exit, Ibrahimovic immediately linked up with MLS outfit LA Galaxy, where he spent two years – scoring 53 goals in 58 games.<\/p>\n

He then returned to the San Siro for his third spell at AC Milan, where he helped them win the Serie A title in 2022.<\/p>\n

After calling time on his career in 2023, he now works as a senior advisor for the Rossoneri.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
