Ibrahimovic can leave if he wants – Mourinho

Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, has said he would be happy if Zlatan Ibrahimovic decides to leave the club at the end of this season.

The Swedish striker is in talks with United over a contract extension, having signed an initial one-year when he joined last summer as a free agent.

Ibrahimovic has enjoyed an impressive debut season in England, scoring 26 goals in all competitions so far.

“I am just calm and waiting for the decision,” Mourinho told Sky Sports.

“If the decision is for him to stay and he is happy with that, we are delighted with that.

“If his decision is to leave and try to find a different challenge, I will be also happy for him.

“He is [a big part of our success this season], but the human being is more important than the player and the team.

“If his decision is to leave and try to be happy with his family and have a different reality, so be it.”
