Ibrahimovic shrugs off transfer speculation

Ibrahimovic scored 25 goals as Inter retained their Serie A title but has been linked in the media with moves to Barcelona and Real Madrid.

"As soon as the (final Serie A) match was finished on Sunday, I began thinking about the national team," Ibrahimovic told reporters on Tuesday when he brushed off the questions about a potential move from Inter. "The season is not over yet, there are two matches left.

"It's a very important match and it will be a good match, a hard one but fun. It's always fun to face Denmark, it will be sold out, they're our neighbours and we'll get to show who's the best in Scandinavia."

"The more Zlatan gets to have the ball, the better it is for us. But he cannot create our game all by himself, no football player is that skilful," he said.

"Of course we could send a good luck ball to Zlatan and hope he does one of his wonders, but you can only make that once or twice in a match. We need to have a game of our own that works."
