Manchester United striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, has dismissed rumours that he may leave the club if they fail in their bid to qualify for the Champions League next season.
He said his United future does not depend on the club qualifying for Champions League.
The 35-year-old, scored twice as Jose Mourinho’s men lifted EPL Cup on Sunday.
With that, he has now scored 26 times in 38 appearances for the club.
He is yet to commit to a 12-month extension to his current Old Trafford contract, which expires on June 30.
Jose Mourinho said after the Sunday’s victory against Southampton that he would not beg the player to sign for the club.
The Swede told reporters, “No, it’s not about that [Champions League].
“I came here and the club wasn’t in the Champions League, so it had nothing to do with the Champions League.
“So somebody made up a story that if they don’t qualify for the Champions League I will not extend. It has nothing to do with that.
“Let’s see what happens. I mean the moment, how I feel, the situation, we have another two months of the season to go, because according to many I could not do what I’ve been doing.”
