LA Galaxy’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic is still not ready to reveal whether he will play in MLS next season. Following the 5-3 loss to LAFC in MLS Western Conference semifinals, Ibrahimovic said that it’s “too early to speak” about his future despite the fact that his contract expires at the end of the year.
Ibrahimovic put on another memorable performance against LAFC, providing one goal and one assist. Still, that wasn’t enough for his team to stay in the MLS Cup race.
Speaking with the reporters after the game, Ibrahimovic said that if he ends up staying, that will benefit the league.
“We’ll see what happens. … [If I stay], then MLS is good, because the whole world will watch it. If I don’t stay, nobody will remember what MLS is.” – said Ibrahimovic.
The 38-year-old Swedish striker joined Galaxy in March 2018. He played 58 games since then and scored 53 goals.
In case that Zlatan Ibrahimovic chooses to leave the United States, there will be plenty of interest from him from other leagues. According to recent reports, Ibrahimovic might be considering a return to Manchester United, which could use a striker considering their attack’s struggles this season. Several Seria A teams are also interested, including Napoli and his old team Inter Milan.
