Summary

'Guardiola has no balls. He drove me like a Fiat...I'm a Ferrari', Zlatan Ibrahimovic - professional football's most mercurial player, Swedish national hero, tabloid fixture, fashion icon, modern-day philosopher and black belt in Taekwondo.

Born to a Muslim father from Bosnia, and a Catholic mother from Croatia, Zlatan recounts his extraordinary life story, from his poverty-stricken upbringing as an immigrant in Malmö, Sweden, to becoming one of the world's most sought-after and expensive players, gracing Europe's finest clubs, from Ajax to Juventus, Internazionale to Barcelona, Milan to Paris Saint-Germain, and now Manchester United.

I Am Zlatan reveals a rare and ferocious intelligence, willpower and God-given talent most recently exhibited when Zlatan scored all four goals for Sweden in a 4-2 victory against England. His fourth goal, a 30-yard overhead kick with his back to goal is widely regarded as one of the greatest goals of all time.

The BBC described it as a goal that 'combined unfathomable imagination and expert technique'.

Fancy slowing down bro?

What’s with the rapid Narrating? So much so that it’s distracting and even the narrator himself can’t keep with his quick he’s reading.

Chill.

Also, the narrator just doesn’t suit a Zlatan book.. ah well, Atleast the new one ‘Adrenaline’ released 6 years later isn’t the same guy………. Oh wait.

Other than the awfully random and awfully awful narration, book is good.

There's only one Zlatan

If you have a low self-esteem like I do, you better give it a shot.

Fantastic

Very good insight to Zlatan's background. A normal guy from Rosengard, Malmo who rose to the zenith of his football career.. Very easy to read too

best sports autobiography I've read

Zlatan is honest, motivating and inspirational. I learned a lot about his life and realise even more so why he is positive. a true reflection of a footballer who didn't have an easy upbringing but rose to the top

great book, should be longer

Great book. Only disappointment was it written a bit early in his career. Incredibly he's scored more goals since this book came out than before

A great story

A very interesting story by a very interesting person. Lively, thoughtful, and honest.
For anyone interested in people. You don’t need to be a football fan.
Hours of good listening.
