Jose Mourinho has insisted that Zlatan
Ibrahimovic will not simply walk straight
back into the Manchester United team when
he returns from injury as he will already
have a “made team”.
The 35-year-old, who scored 28 goals in all
competitions last year, had his one season
at Old Trafford curtailed by a career-
threatening knee injury, for which he is still
recovering from the surgery he has four
months ago.
He was initially released, only to be re-
signed, clad with Wayne Rooney’s old No 10
shirt, on Thursday but will not be fit to put
pressure on the likes of Romelu Lukaku and
Marcus Rashford before the new year.

“No, no, no, no. Zlatan is going to arrive
into a made team,” Mourinho insisted.
“Zlatan is going to arrive to a team that I
don’t say is the end product because in
football there are no end products and we
are just at the start of the second season.
“He is going to arrive mid-season with the
team playing in a certain way and with
players having what I call the functional
links in the dynamic of the team, so nobody
should be worried with Zlatan.
