Edinson Cavani A 'Perfect Fit' For Manchester United?
The return of Zlatan Ibrahimovic to training has already boosted Paris Saint-Germain, this according to manager Laurent Blanc. The majestic striker has been out of action since limping off with a hamstring injury in the return leg of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal in London. He is now ready to return (h/t to Goal). "Zlatan is in good physical and mental shape," Blanc said.
"This week in training, the team has shown a lot of commitment. I think it is a good sign. When Zlatan returns to training, there is more motivation in the team. He is a group leader," he added.
"Zlatan is definitely the best player in Ligue 1 now, but there have been others in history as well."
