It all started with an interview given by Zlatan Ibrahimovic, 39, for Discovery + Sport Sweden. When asked about LeBron James, the AC Milan star said:
„What he does is great, but I don’t like people of any kind talking about politics. Each of us has to do what we are good at. I play soccer because I am the best soccer player. I don’t do politics. If he were a politician, he would go into politics. This is the first mistake celebrities make when they feel like they’ve come to the fore. For me, it is better to get away from these problems and do what you are good at, otherwise we run the risk of making a bad impression. “
LeBron James’ response to Ibrahimovic: “He’s a hypocrite”
“I have more than 300 children in my school (I Promise School), who need a voice and I am their voice … I will never be silent when something is wrong! I am not just being an athlete! I am the wrong guy to tell you that, I always do my homework. There is no possibility of limiting myself to just sports because I understand this platform and how strong my voice is. It’s funny that he says this: I think in 2018 it was he who said, when he returned to Sweden, that he felt racism because his last name was not a normal last name (in Sweden). Do not? He said that, didn’t he? I think he said it “The 36-year-old Los Angeles Lakers star continued.
The 2018 statements from Zlatan that LeBron refers to are as follows, Mark notes:
“When I got to Malmo, they didn’t accept me like the others. Why? Because I was Ibrahimovic. It wasn’t Andersson, it wasn’t Svensson, all those Swedish surnames. I was a stranger (…). I had an incident during training, I hit a teammate with my head, because I was upset after a hard tackle from him. His father was a policeman. He wrote a letter to the club asking to be fired and handed that paper to all the players on the team and said: Sign this if you agree with the dismissal of Zlatan! I was a junior. Can you imagine how I felt when that happened? I felt that I did not fit in, that I was a black sheep, they did not accept my attitude, they did not accept me as a person, no they made me feel welcome. I was different, I had a different face, I was not blonde, I did not have white skin like the Swedes. I suffered in the sense that it was not as easy for me as it was for others. I felt that I had to do ten more times to be seen as everyone else. ”
