Former Sweden striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has given his thoughts on players moving to Saudi Arabia.

The veteran, who retired in the summer due to injury issues, was asked about players such as Cristiano Ronaldo leaving the best leagues in Europe for the Saudi Pro League.

Ibrahimovic, who played for AC Milan, Juventus, Inter Milan, Barcelona, PSG, Manchester United, and other top clubs, gave his thoughts to Piers Morgan Uncensored.

He stated: "I had an offer also from China. I had an offer also from Saudi, but the situation is, what do you want? What objectives do you have? I said before we started, like certain players need to finish their career on the big stage because that is the high end of your career.

"You have to be remembered for your talent, not for what you earned. Because if you were remembered in the opposite way, what we are training every day for, what we are being recognised for, is our talent and that's what you want to be remembered for.

"So I think certain players that reach a certain level, they have to stop at a certain stage, and that's the big stage. You cannot go in a lower stage and finish your career in a different way. But some players needed the situations where you can earn a lot of money because they didn't earn enough."

Before AC Milan, Ibrahimovic spent two seasons in the USA with LA Galaxy.
