Manchester United defender Phil Jones has praised the professionalism of Zlatan Ibrahimovic after his recent form for the club.
Despite turning 35 in October, Ibrahimovic has made 25 appearances during the first half of the season - more than any of his Old Trafford teammates - and Jones has said that the Swede reaps the benefits from the way he conducts himself both on and off the pitch.
The 24-year-old is quoted by The Mirror as saying: "He is enjoying it. He's strong, he scores goals and you could see his quality [against West Brom]. It's great that he's scoring so many goals. It's what we need.
"Maybe we need some more players to chip in with some more goals, but he's doing well for us and long may it continue.
"He looks after his body, he looks after himself, he's a true professional and anyone growing up, looking for how a top professional should behave, he is the ideal player."
Ibrahimovic has scored 10 goals in his last nine appearances for United.
