Zlatan: What Pep Told Me After I Signed For Barcelona

Retired footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed what Pep Guardiola told him after he signed for Barcelona in 2009, and how he intentionally went against the Spaniard's orders.

The Swede has previously recalled the difficult relationship he had with the Spanish tactician during his short spell at the Catalan club, and has once again discussed his time under Guardiola.

Ibrahimovic joined Barcelona in a swap deal in 2009, with Samuel Eto'o going to Inter Milan as part of the agreement, but he would only spend a year in Spain before heading back to Italy in a loan move to AC Milan that became permanent in 2011.

Speaking to British broadcaster Piers Morgan in a recent tell-all interview, which will be released in full at a later date, the retired former AC Milan forward recounted how he intentionally disobeyed Guardiola with his preferred mode of transport.

"When I met Pep Guardiola, he told me: 'Remember, the players here do not come with Ferraris,'" he said, according to Sport.

"What did I do? Of course. I brought my f***ing Ferrari."
