Arsenal hero Emmanuel Petit has questioned Manchester United's swoop for Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The former PSG striker took to social media to confirm that he would be joining United as a free agent, but Petit isn't convinced he'll be a hit.

"There's already an emblematic player [at Manchester United] who's starting to drag his weight around the pitch a little bit - Wayne Rooney - in a very physical league, where it's often box-to-box and where you really ask your forwards to have a physical dimension," he told RMC.

"Maybe Ibra can bring a different touch, but he's not the player that I was expecting at Manchester United, to be honest. Maybe I'm mistaken - I don't know. I think it's a bit of a gamble."
