AC Milan striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic has come out to say that he is currently watching the limits of his body. He recently revealed this as he approaches his 40th birthday, and the world has been reacting.
According to him, the truth is that he is no superman and has realized that as a footballer grows, he knows how important it is to listen to his body.
Zlatan added that his head is still fine, but his body is getting old, therefore adjustments have to be made.
His words, “When I was young, I just played, even if I felt pain in my tendons,”
“I wanted to win and score, stop. With time and experience, I started using my head and I realised how important it is to listen to your body.”
“My head is fine, but my body is getting old, it doesn’t always keep up with it [the head] and it’s a problem. This year I have to listen to my body, every little signal it sends me.”
“Only by doing so, I can avoid worse consequences. I need to listen to my body every day to play consistently. I need to think slowly, day by day, and realise that I am not Superman.”
