New-boy Ibrahimovic to miss United’s China tour
Print Edition
ZLATAN Ibrahimovic will miss Manchester United’s preseason tour of China as the Sweden striker takes an extended break following Euro 2016.
Ibrahimovic joined Jose Mourinho’s side on a free transfer after leaving French champion Paris-Saint Germain at the end of last season, but the Premier League club’s fans in China won’t get a first glimpse of the marquee signing in a United shirt. Although United’s 25-man squad for the trip includes Wayne Rooney, Marcus Rashford, Chris Smalling and David De Gea, who all exited Euro 2016 later than Ibrahimovic, the former Barcelona and Inter Milan star was given extra time off. The 35-year-old’s absence won’t slow the clamor to see United’s friendlies against Borussia Dortmund in Shanghai on Friday and Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City in Beijing on Monday.
