Paris Saint-Germain manager Laurent Blanc has revealed that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is eager to perform for the first team after returning from suspension.
The Swedish star was banned for four games after a rant about living in France and criticism of referee Lionel Jaffredo, but is available for the trip to Nantes this weekend.
Zlatan himself labelled the sanction as a "disgrace to football", but Blanc has suggested that the forward has put in the hard yards ahead of his return to the game.
Speaking ahead of the match against Nantes, he told reporters: "Zlatan has worked very hard throughout his suspension. He can't wait to get back on the pitch, to play, to win, and obviously, to score. He is another option for us."
PSG are currently behind Ligue 1 leaders Lyon on goal difference, although they have a game in hand on their title rivals.
