Departing PSG star Zlatan Ibrahimovic says Italian football will always be special to him.

The former Juventus and AC Milan striker is expected to join Manchester United after the Euros.

"A return to Italy? I say two things, perhaps contradictory. The first is that you never know what can happen. The second is that one never goes where history was written.

"I consider Italy as my second home and Italian football as the best in the world: there is an infinite passion, totally.

"This is something that corresponds to the way I see the sport. And also life," said Ibrahimovic.
