Zlatan Ibrahimovic doesn’t hold back: he condemns players who succumbed to the lure of money from Saudi Arabia.

Benzema, Kanté, Neymar… all in the same boat. Zlatan Ibrahimovic opened up to Piers Morgan and criticized players who fell for the riches from Saudi Arabia. « I also received offers from China and Saudi Arabia, but the question is: what do you want? What are your goals? I said before starting that some players must finish their careers on the big stage because it’s the pinnacle of their careers. »

« You have to be recognized for your talent, for what you’ve achieved. Because if you’re remembered the opposite way, then what’s the point of our daily training, what are we recognized for? It’s our talent; it’s what you want to be remembered for. So I think some players who reach a certain level must stop at a certain point. »

« You can’t drop to a lower level and end your career differently. But some players needed to make a lot of money because they hadn’t earned enough, » said the Swedish legend.
