Interviewed by Prime Video, AC Milan veteran striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic discussed his career among other topics:
"I have a problem... I am never satisfied and I always want to go further. It's my mentality. I have to do more and more to feel alive and to feel that I am present. I don't want to be here for something I've done before. I want to be here for what I am doing now. I like to work, I like to suffer", he told the media outlet.
Ibrahimovic continued to talk as he discussed the Champions League fixture:
"We are preparing like all matches, that is, in the best possible way. We played well against Atletico until the moment we were left with one less player and it is difficult to play with one less."
On the importance of being a leader:
"I talk a lot in the locker room, I feel I have responsibility. What I say is not planned. It's not like someone comes to tell you that you are a leader. You are automatically. When you feel like talking to your companions to give them help and courage. What I say to my teammates in the locker room is not planned. Getting ready is impossible."
Ibrahimovic concluded:
"Everyone in life has dreams, they have a vision. But to reach them you have to believe in them, you have to be willing and ready to make sacrifices and suffer because success doesn't come alone. It all depends on you. Nobody believed in me and what I did. But I never gave up. I kept going knowing that I was the best of all. This mentality made me go forward. I have shown that anything is possible."
