Breaking!!! Zlatan Ibrahimovic Sets New Premier League Record

The Red Devils striker has
reached a landmark for Jose
Mourinho’s side against
Leicester City, becoming the
oldest player to score 15 goals
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has set a
new Premier League record,
becoming the oldest player to
reach 15 goals in a single
season.
The former Sweden
international joined Manchester
United from PSG in the summer,
and has made an instant impact
at Old Trafford, netting 15 goals
in 24 appearances for Jose
Mourinho’s side.
On Sunday, he scored United’s
second against Leicester City,
taking him to 15 goals at 35
years and 125 days old.
Ibrahimovic swept home from
inside the area after good work
from Antonio Valencia found
him in the area, putting the ball
through the legs of Wes Morgan
and into the Foxes net.
The former Barcelona man also
made Premier League history
earlier in the season, netting the
competition’s 25,000th goal with
his strike against Swansea.
Ibrahimovic now as at least 15
league goals in his last six
seasons, stretching back to his
time at AC Milan.
Since 2006 he has only failed to
reach that landmark once, and
at 35 years old he shows no sign
of stopping.
Counting all competitions, the
forward has also now scored 20
goals in 10 consecutive seasons.
Way back in 2006-07 when he
was with Inter Milan, he fell
short of that target, but still
scored 15 times.
In addition to those,
Ibrahimovic has reached 15
Premier League goals for United
in the fourth fastest number of
games (23), following Ruud van
Nistelrooy (19), Dwight Yorke
(20) and Robin van Persie (21).
