LONDON // Zlatan Ibrahimovic has indicated he could prolong his time with Manchester United after saying Wednesday he will “never leave a job unfinished”.
The 35-year-old striker has quickly established himself as a fans’ favourite at Old Trafford, having so far scored 26 goals in 41 appearances in his debut season after joining on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain.
Ibrahimovic has the option of another year on his contract, with United manager Jose Mourinho, under whom he played at Inter Milan, making it clear he would like him to stay.
"I'm a person when I go into something I put my head 200 per cent and I do what I'm good at," said Ibrahimovic in comments reported by the Manchester Evening News.

“I go in, I go for the kill and I go out. And when I go out, there is no complaints, that’s what I do. I never leave a job unfinished.
“Let’s see what happens, we are talking. I have an option for another year, I want to do great as long as I’m here, so let us see, there is a lot of time.”
Meanwhile Ibrahimovic made it clear how much he was relishing his time under Mourinho at United by adding: “I’m enjoying being at a fantastic club, without doubts, one of the biggest clubs in the world with a great coach. I know him before, he’s a winner, he’s the perfect coach for this club.
“Being a Manchester United player, I don’t know how many people have that possibility but I am a Man United player, people wanted me here. I chose the best English club.”
