Zlatan Ibrahimovic may not be arriving at Manchester United on his own. The Swedish striker could very well be bringing his own favoured physio with him, according to claims on Wednesday from French newspaper L’Equipe.
When Ibrahimovic arrived at PSG in 2012, he did so along with Italian physio Dario Fort, the pair have formed a good partnership and the player obviously feels it’s important to him.
At 34 years of age, Ibrahimovic will be aware of the importance of being in the best physical shape possible and L’Equipe believe that is likely to involve Fort moving to Manchester United.
The physio himself is said to want to leave PSG and join Ibrahimovic at Manchester United, so he’s in talks with Oliver Letang to negotiate what the French newspaper call ‘a friendly separation’.
It had been expected Fort would stay at PSG and concentrate on helping his compatriot Marco Verratti. The midfielder is younger than Ibrahimovic, so maybe it would have made more sense career-wise, but L’Equipe say Fort feels a loyalty to Ibrahimovic.
