Publisher's summary

'Guardiola has no balls. He drove me like a Fiat...I'm a Ferrari', Zlatan Ibrahimovic - professional football's most mercurial player, Swedish national hero, tabloid fixture, fashion icon, modern-day philosopher and black belt in Taekwondo.

Born to a Muslim father from Bosnia, and a Catholic mother from Croatia, Zlatan recounts his extraordinary life story, from his poverty-stricken upbringing as an immigrant in Malmö, Sweden, to becoming one of the world's most sought-after and expensive players, gracing Europe's finest clubs, from Ajax to Juventus, Internazionale to Barcelona, Milan to Paris Saint-Germain, and now Manchester United.

I Am Zlatan reveals a rare and ferocious intelligence, willpower and God-given talent most recently exhibited when Zlatan scored all four goals for Sweden in a 4-2 victory against England. His fourth goal, a 30-yard overhead kick with his back to goal is widely regarded as one of the greatest goals of all time.

The BBC described it as a goal that 'combined unfathomable imagination and expert technique'.

Loved it!

Love hearing about how Zlatan experiences the world. It was enjoyable to come back to this every once in a while. The narrator is really engaging and make it fun/easy to listen to.

You will fall in love with Zlatan

Inspirational and entertaining. Hard to stop listening. Great tale about a kid who was virtually tossed aside by all but achieved his biggest dreams, all by being himself. Highly recommend.

The best sports book out there

I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook. This is easily the best football book I have read (listened to) and I would say even the best sports book. Zlatan says it like it is, and this approach is no different when it comes to telling his own life story. He speaks with such clarity and honesty unlike many other biographies from other sports people, The part about Guardiola is hilarious.

I disagree with some of the comments that the British narrator was the wrong choice for this audiobook. I think it was a touch of genius. The London accent worked for me as even though Zlatan is Swedish, that type of voice gave a sense of the tough neighborhood he must have grown up in. If you had a Swedish-accented narrator speaking English to tell the story, it would not have been the same authentic experience.

I strongly recommend this audiobook for football and even sports lovers.

Pay Zlatan to read!

It’s an interesting book for anybody into soccer. But it’s a book written by Zlatan, read by a semi-bored British lad. He probably read it as well as he could, but that’s still not Zlatan!
