“The first number one priority was to stay at the Galaxy because I feel I still have a lot to give to the team, the MLS and the fans,” Ibrahimovic explained as cited by Calciomercato.
“The way we closed last season was not normal for me, because normally where I go, I win. I did not succeed here and this is not good for me. I think the fans deserve more than we did,” the bomber revealed.
“For the next season, I want to feel challenged in this regard. The first season I used to understand how I was, at what level I was, especially after my injury. I had not played more than ten minutes for a year and showed the world what it was. I have shown, however, that I am here, that I am alive and this was important to me.”
