Maximilian Ibrahimovic in the footsteps of dad Zlatan

The words of Ibrahimovic’s son

Maximilian Ibrahimovic, the 18-year-old son of Zlatan registered with AC Milan’s youth team, spoke to Sportbladet: "Until the age of eleven I hated soccer, I thought it was the worst thing in the world becauseé I was always being compared to my dadà it felt wrong".

"Then all of a sudden one day I woke up, è clicked in my head and è changed everything", added Ibra Jr. who followed his father from an early age by wearing the jerseys of PSG, Manchester United and Galaxy.

"I want to win and become one of the strongest players, I aim high. Only Milan matters, scoring in the derby è special and when I scored against Inter I kissed the jersey. When I see Leao I remain speechless è special", he added.

"The comparison with papà? The hardest thing è thinking about all the so great things he did and knowing that you risk really being in the shadows, but I just focus on myself. Number one è my mom, without her the family would not exist, she supports me and my brother Vincent", he concluded.
