Zlatan Ibrahimovic to train with Man Utd for first time today

Zlatan Ibrahimovic will train with Manchester United for the first time today.

The Mirror says Ibrahimovic will train with his new Manchester United team-mates tomorrow ahead of his expected debut at the weekend.

Ibrahimovic, who joined United on a free transfer from Paris St-Germain, is set to make his debut in his native Sweden when Jose Mourinho's side face Galatasaray in Gothenburg on Saturday. He was given an extended break by Mourinho following Sweden's early exit from Euro 2016 on June 22, meaning the striker has been away from football for five weeks.

The 34-year-old arrived in Manchester on Sunday and has spent the past three days working on a fitness programme tailored for him before joining the first-team squad today.
