Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed he is happy with the start to the season he has made with Paris Saint-Germain, and has rubbished suggestions his powers may be on the wane. Having missed out on qualifying for the World Cup in Brazil, Sweden’s Hamren is unlikely to continue if they go out while Olsen will definitely step down when Denmark’s interest ends.

“I am a coach, and a teacher”, Ancelotti told the Daily Mail, “And working with the players is the best part of the job, but I was a player, too, and I remember”.

And the 34-year-old has hinted that if Sweden don’t make it, he may consider retirement, after 14 years representing his country. With 59 global goals, he Sweden’s all time leading goalscorer.

“If it’s over [for me] after the play-offs?” I have to find somewhere where I am able to live the way I want to.
