Zlatan Ibrahimovic made a brilliant comeback at the Amercian football club LA Galaxy earlier this year. The 36-year-old sustained anterior cruciate ligament damage while playing at the Europa League at his previous club Manchester United. The Swedish International player has so far scored 12 goals in 11 matches and has been by far one of the most successful players at the Major League Soccer.

However, he has no intention of hanging his boots any time soon. While speaking about his retirement plans Zlatan said, “Let's see because I feel alive now. I had this injury, but afterwards people forget because after three months I showed everybody that I'm still alive. Actually, I did it after two minutes when I came here.”

"I feel good, I feel fresh and I'm happy here. I like my team-mates, I like the club, I like the people around it and I like the city. I want to help the club. I want to help the people around. I want to help my team-mates win and I'm here for the moment, so all of you should enjoy [it] while I'm here. I want to play football for as long as I can because after the injury the answer was that I couldn't play again. I just love what I do and I want to do it as long as I can. Obviously the physical part, the condition and this, if it's not answering then it's time to say, 'I did my job' and stop. But I'm not there yet and I feel good,” he further explained.
