Zlatan is so big in Sweden PSG have lost eight million
Former Manchester United winger Jesper Blomqvist said to sources Paris Saint-Germain have ” might lost eight million supporters” after Zlatan Ibrahimovic joined the Premier League side this summer.
Ibrahimovic 35-years old, former Sweden international champions at the end of last season after four trophy-laden years at Parc des Princes and Blomqvist.
“He is one of the biggest personalities in Sweden,” Blomqvist told the Sun. “He has launched his own perfume, Volvo cars and his own sports clothing range. He is everywhere even though he has stopped playing for the national team, while one article mentioned that while his parents moved as a refugees in Sweden, he was discrinated as a child, and to play for national team, he did a lot..
“I work a lot with travel companies in Sweden coming over to Manchester. The interest is just triple. Zlatan is so big in Sweden. PSG have lost eight million supporters in Sweden and now they are all Manchester United. Not all but it is like that.
“More planes come over, they sell a lot more tickets to the United games. I have done it every now and then for a couple of years. Now there are 10 times more calls from companies who want me to come over with the supporters.”
PSG are struggling to come to terms with the loss of Ibrahimovic on and off the pitch so far and the talismanic striker’s absence has been credited as a key factor behind the Ligue 1 giants’ slow start to life under new coach Unai Emery.
