Ibra took in Malmo's clash with BK Hacken on invitation of chairman Hakan Jeppsson.

"We have a contact with him and he is great for us. He wants to be a part of Malmö FF. It was important that he was here," Jeppsson told Sportbladet.

"He has very strong ties to Malmö and Malmö FF. He also follows us on his own initiative very much. That's why it's easy to keep in touch with him. You notice that he is influenced by the mood of the supporters here are. He has strong feelings for Malmö and the city.

"We will have a broader discussion about what Zlatan can do later and if he can do something in Malmö FF in some way when he finishes his international career. It is in the context we have reasoning about a few different things."
