Zlatan Ibrahimovic spoke to 'Sky Sport' and openly cleared up the mystery of the tweet he uploaded to social media with a Sweden top. The striker is clear that he isn't going to return.

Just a week ago, Ibra uploaded a photo to his social media in which he wore the Sweden number 10 with the following message: "Long time no see".

Many started to wonder if the striker really wanted to play for his country again, as he is now in his best moment.

After the 2-2 draw with Hellas Verona, Zlatan spoke to 'Sky Sport' and explained what there was behind that photo: "It was only to irritate Sweden, for pleasure, not because I want to come back".

The last time that Ibrahimovic played for Sweden was on 22nd June 2016, in the Euro 2016 group stage match against Belgium (0-1).
