LA Galaxy striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic admits he can see himself making Sweden's World Cup squad.

The former Manchester United centre-forward has spoken about ending his international retirement.

"If everything feels good and I can do everything as I have done for years, then we can talk about it," said Ibra, when asked if he could make the World Cup.

"But at this point we are currently not talking about it.
