Ibrahimovic hints at Qatar move

Paris Saint-Germain striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has suggested he could continue his career in Qatar.

The 34-year-old's existing contract with the Ligue 1 champions is due to expire at the end of the season and he has yet to make a decision on his future.

"My current situation is new to me. I have an expiring contract and that is a new experience. I am free to do what I want," Ibrahimovic is quoted by L'Equipe.

"I am focused on PSG for now. I still have six months to go on my current contract and I want to give my best for the team. I do not have a next destination in mind.

"A move to Qatar? I have a good relationship with [PSG president] Nasser Al-Khelaifi and with the people of Qatar, but I cannot say anything at this stage. Let's just say that a move to Qatar is an option.

"I am enjoying my football at the moment and I'm feeling well both mentally and physically. I am enjoying myself each game. We will see what happens."

"I do not think as a player," he added. 

"I have a lot of experience and have played under some great coaches. They have learned me a lot. We will see whether a career as a coach is an option at the end of my career."
