But how far will go Zlatan Ibrahimovic ? At 40, the Swede continues to impress the football world by showing himself to be as efficient as ever on the football pitch. A remarkable longevity for the colossus who has known everything in his career. These days he releases his autobiography, Adrenaline, in which he looks back on his life and in particular his remarkable time at Paris Saint-Germain. Arrived at the beginning of the crazy project launched by the Qataris, the father of Maximilian (born in September 2006) and Vincent (born in March 2008) was the first star to join the French capital.
During his 4 years at PSG, Zlatan allowed the club to make a name for itself on the international scene and he won 12 trophies there, more than with any other club. If things went well on the ground, everything was not rosy outside and especially in 2014, when Helena Seger’s husband had to deal with the death of his brother Sapko. Died of leukemia at only 41 years old, he leaves the Swede bruised by his departure. “When my brother fell ill, I was totally helpless”, he remembers today in an interview for the JDD.
Money and fame didn’t help
Devastated by the death of his brother, the former team-mate of David Beckham in Paris realized that life did not depend on anything. “Money and fame were of no help”, he recalls, trying somehow to keep hope for his brother at the time: “I prayed and tried to stay positive to give her hope that everything would be okay“. A moving and unfiltered testimony for someone who often let his emotions speak when he was in France.
Today returned to Italy, Zlatan Ibrahimovic continues to be talked about and he does not hesitate to open up on difficult subjects such as the death of his brother. A terrible disappearance for a player with a steel mind who knew how to bounce back after this terrible blow of fate.
