Sweden International, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, has claimed that he is the “best ever” player to feature in Major League Soccer.
Ibrahimovic said this after he scored an hat-trick in LA Galaxy’s 7-2 victory over Sporting Kansas City on Sunday.
He has now broken Galaxy’s single season scoring record, after scoring 26 goals in 25 games during the 2019 season.
The former Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan striker, has taken the record from Carlos Ruiz, who netted 24 times in the 2002 season.
“I think I am the best ever to play in MLS. And that, without joking. It’s good. I said from the first day I came that I’m not here for vacation.
“I’m here to perform and show everybody what the game is about. I think the two years I’ve had here, I’ve done good things. Amazing things. Perfect things, ” Ibrahimovic said.
He joined Galaxy on a free transfer from Manchester United in 2018, has now scored 48 goals in 51 appearances in MLS.
