The celebrity that Zlatan Ibrahimovic wants to meet most is himself
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the new LA Galaxy star, and very confident human being (though I would be too if I could play soccer that well) continued his media tour this week on The Dan Patrick Show where he was asked which celebrity he most wanted to meet now that he was close to Hollywood.
"Me. I don't want to meet nobody, they want to meet me."
The interview follows Wednesday's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's show, where Ibrahimovic explained that the greatest gift he could give to Los Angeles is himself and promised that his teammates wouldn't be fed up with his cockiness because he was going to make them a star. (It should be noted this week one of his national team teammates said he wasn't so keen on his coming back for the World Cup).
And on Thursday, he had a plan to fix US Soccer:
But that confidence, he explained, is what makes him great.
"50 percent is in your head and the rest is trained, adapt, settle and all of those small details," he said. "So whatever I will chose I will do good. So the lucky thing is I chose football."
