Yesterday, Tuesday, Zlatan Ibrahimovic received the Ballon d’Or for the twelfth time in his playing career. In relation to the moment he surrendered, he admitted, in an interview with Aftonbladet, that he misses the Swedish national team.
– If you ask me, I’ll answer you honestly: Yes, I miss the national team. It’s no secret, he tells the newspaper.
What would the response have been if the national team captain, Janne Andersson, had heard from you?
– I had replied … “Give me time, I’ll think about it.” With that must come from him. Because if you think I’m a distraction, then I’m not interested. If you think I can contribute something, I’ll think about it. Are you in?
When Fotbollskanalen contacts the national team coach Stefan Pettersson on Wednesday morning, he says the following:
– I haven’t read it (the Aftonbladet interview) yet and I haven’t talked to Janne, we haven’t talked to each other since after the Soccer Gala, says Pettersson.
In the interview, Ibrahimovic opens up for a comeback in the national team, what do you think of that?
– I don’t think anything because I haven’t seen or talked to Janne yet. We’ll see how this is handled, but I guess there will surely be some comment from Janne during the day. Like I said, I haven’t talked to him and I must be a little bored and tell him that I have nothing to say because I need to talk to him first.
You, with your role as national coach, do not want to comment on the appointments either?
– No, I really don’t want to. Even if you say it has been said, in that case you want to see and hear all of him (Zlatan), how he presents himself. It is difficult to comment on newspaper excerpts that I myself have not even seen. I can probably comment on it later when I have become adequately familiar with it.
