Agent: 'Zlatan Ibrahimovic wanted to join Real Madrid to spite Pep Guardiola'

Zlatan Ibrahimovic's agent has claimed that the Sweden international wanted to join Real Madrid after leaving Barcelona because it would have been the "perfect revenge" on Pep Guardiola.

The 33-year-old striker played under Guardiola at the Camp Nou in the 2009-10 season, but left at the end of the campaign to join AC Milan.

Agent Mino Raiola told Marca: "I don't think he regrets anything [but] Zlatan wanted to play for Real when he left Barca. It would have been the ideal move - the perfect revenge against Guardiola."

Ibrahimovic now plays for Paris Saint-Germain.
