Mourinho backs misfiring ibrahimovic

A great topic!

José Mourinho, the former Chelsea and Manchester United manager, has come out in support of Zlatan Ibrahimović, the Swedish striker who has been struggling with injuries and form in recent times.

In an interview with The Times, Mourinho praised Ibrahimović's professionalism and dedication, saying: "I think Zlatan is a great player, a great professional, and a great guy. He's a player who always gives his best, always tries to win, and always tries to be better."

Mourinho also acknowledged that Ibrahimović has been going through a tough period, but believes that the striker still has a lot to offer: "He's not playing well, but that's normal. He's not playing well because he's not fit, because he's not training, because he's not playing. But I think he's a player who can still play at a high level."

Ibrahimović, who has played for several top clubs including Ajax, Juventus, Inter Milan, Barcelona, and Paris Saint-Germain, has been struggling with injuries and form since joining the LA Galaxy in 2018. Despite his struggles, Mourinho believes that the striker still has a lot to offer and can make a significant impact on the pitch.

It's worth noting that Mourinho has a history of backing underperforming players, and his comments about Ibrahimović are likely to be seen as a vote of confidence in the striker's abilities.
