Arijon Ibrahimovic plays for Frosinone in Serie A on loan from Bayern Munich. He is 17 years old, German, and plays as a left-winger. Although they share the same last name, Arijon and Zlatan are not related. However, the young left-winger admitted that the former Milan forward is an idol of his.
Here are his words to Il Corriere dello Sport:
"I was looking for a team to play for. I understood from the initial talks with Director Angelozzi and Coach Di Francesco that this could be the right place. A newly promoted team? Why not. What interested me was a team built to play football and a coach who loved working with young players. I had also watched some videos of the early matches."
On Zlatan Ibrahimovic, he said:
"For me, it's my surname, that of my family. What effect can it have? Then I know that in football, Ibrahimovic is the other one; they used to joke a lot about it even in Germany. I've already said that Zlatan was one of my role models, like Cristiano Ronaldo. But I've never met him. I would really like to meet him and shake his hand. Maybe it will happen against Milan. That is, if the coach lets me play."
So far, Arijon Ibrahimovic has made 6 appearances for Frosinone between Serie A and Coppa Italia. He scored 2 goals and made 1 assist.
