Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s Manchester United return revealed as club eye Premier League clash in December
Jose Mourinho and Co are hoping to have the Swedish superstar back for the massive clash with Arsenal late this year
ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC'S return to the Manchester United first-team has been revealed, as the club eye a certain Premier League clash in December.
Jose Mourinho and Co are hoping to have the Swedish superstar, 36, back for United's massive showdown with Arsenal late this year.
Ibrahimovic, who has been working his way back from an ACL injury sustained in the Europa League in April, could play in the game at the Emirates on December 2.
Recently, Zlatan claimed he is hoping to come back stronger than ever, saying: "I feel good.
"I have trained every day since I had my knee operated on, there is no vacation.
"It's a new challenge but I am strong mentally and when I focus on an objective nothing can stop me.
"I will go through everything, it doesn't matter what's in my way, I will break everything to reach my goal.
"When I come back to play football on the field I will be better than before.
"I am not coming back because I am the one I am, I am coming back to be a better version of the old one... imagine how that will be.
"If we talk specifically about the injury then I have never felt any pain, the only thing I have felt is a strange feeling in my movement that obviously showed something was wrong in the knee.

"Now we're building it up and it's getting stronger.
"I feel good and I feel my movements are there. If it was up to me I would like to play football today but it doesn't work like that.
"I need to have patience and that's the way we work. We are in no rush, when we are ready we will be ready.
"When I am playing again I don't want any excuses that I was injured, or 'he just came back, this is his first game'.
"No, I want to feel the same pressure I had before because everything happened. I am looking forward to that moment."
