LA Galaxy striker Ibrahimovic: World Cup without me would not be World Cup

LA Galaxy striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has declared he'll be playing at the World Cup.

Ibrahimovic retired from international football after Euro2016 and missed Sweden's World Cup qualifying campaign.

However, the former Manchester United striker has announced on US television he will be making a comeback.

"I will go to the World Cup, it is the only thing that I can say," said Ibrahimovic.

"If I say more, people will blame me. I have to be careful what I say now. A World Cup without me would not be a World Cup."
