LA Galaxy striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has jumped to the defence of Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho.

The Swede left United in January for the MLS.

He told ESPN: “It has come out in the media that coaches have problems my character. That is not true, I will tell you now.

“I didn't have problems with any coach. If there was a problem, it was the coaches and I didn't know about it.

“I had Mourinho. Everybody knows that he is for discipline and respect – and that is on a high level.

“He doesn't accept anything and I didn't have one problem with him."
