Z.Ibrahimovic: I am like wine - I only get better with age © EuroFootball.com

Paris Saint-Germain's leader Zlatan Ibrahimovič claims that he is not an arrogant footballer and compared himself to wine.

The Swedish national team player has not spared praise for himself lately, insisting that he is the best player in the world and that without him, the World Cup is not interesting.

"I remember the beginning of my career, back then I was introduced as an arrogant footballer. But could an arrogant, conceited, and ill-mannered player win 20 titles?

It's all the fault of the media, which creates unnecessary stories and speeches. I am a professional and respect every footballer, because this is just a game," the forward said.

The former Barcelona player also added that he is similar to wine: "I am like wine - with age, I only get better."
