Ibrahimovic: Ask Guardiola why I left Barcelona

AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic admits he's happy to be away from Barcelona. Ibra explained why he walked out on Inter Milan in the summer of 2009, then returned to Serie A just 12 months later following a row with Pep Guardiola.

"I don't know what happened with Guardiola. If I knew what the problem was, I'd have resolved it. When you don't know the problem, then it's impossible.

"Milan gave me back my smile, as I wasn't happy with the situation at Barcelona. In those moments, it is important to find something that brings back your smile and hunger to play. This is what Milan gave me.

"I believe strongly in this side as Scudetto contenders and also with Champions League potential."
