Larsson: Man Utd striker Ibrahimovic always had big personality

Swedish legend Henrik Larsson is happy seeing Zlatan Ibrahimovic at Manchester United.

Larsson played alongside each other in the World Cup in South Korea and Japan.

He told FourFourTwo: "He was more naive at the time, but still a great personality.

"He had the skills but he didn't have all the bits in place.

"Back then I was asked how good he could be and I said it was up to him, as he had everything.

"Now he's one of the world's best strikers, and has been for years."
