Early Life

Ibrahimović was born in Malmö, Sweden, on 3rd October 1981. His father, Šefik Ibrahimović, emigrated to Sweden from Bosnia in 1977 and his mother, Jurka Gravić, emigrated to Sweden from Croatia. His parents met in Sweden & he was raised Catholic. Ibrahimović has one sibling and four half-siblings. He started playing football at six years old with local clubs.

On 14th August 2013, he scored an international hat-trick at the Friends Arena, scoring Sweden’s first three goals in a 4–2 friendly win against Scandinavian rivals Norway. He scored twice in a 3–2 play-off defeat to Portugal – billed as a battle between Zlatan and Cristiano Ronaldo as the team failed to reach the 2014 World Cup.

In December 2014, Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter ranked him the second-greatest Swedish sportsperson ever, after tennis player Björn Borg. In October 2015, he became PSG’s all-time leading goalscorer.
