Zlatan Ibrahimovic tipped to come out of retirement to join Wrexham with Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney's 'Hollywood' project ideally 'suited' to AC Milan icon

Serie A

AC Milan

Atalanta

League One

Blackpool

Wrexham

<p>The enigmatic Swede, who played into his 40s, hung up his boots in 2023. Having called time on his career while on the books at Serie A giants AC Milan, the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/kyle-walker-likens-zlatan-ibrahimovic-presence-wayne-rooney-what-like-work-swedish-striker-ac-milan/blt23257a046350cc37" target="_blank">legendary striker is now filling an advisory role at San Siro.</a></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Ibrahimovic has <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/speaks-his-mind-why-zlatan-ibrahimovic-denied-ballon-d-or-win-former-team-mate-sulley-muntari-swedish-striker-not-intimidating/blt6ffe8697ea99b7cc" target="_blank">never been the type to shy away from a challenge</a> and may be tempted to step back onto the field if an enticing offer arrives. Former Wrexham star Matt Jansen has suggested that an approach could be made from North Wales.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Reynolds and McElhenney are determined to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/welcome-to-wrexham-survive-brutal-relegation-documentary-update-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-season-5-promotion-championship/blt964658e1ff7bb25a" target="_blank">make Wrexham a Premier League outfit</a>, with promotion into the Championship currently being sought. More money is <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-further-partners-wrexham-hollywood-superstars-investors-premier-league-dream/bltd947e237e81a9028" target="_blank">expected to be spent this summer</a>, with a stunning swoop for the self-anointed ‘God’ of Swedish football being speculated on.</p>

WHAT MATT JANSEN SAID

<p>Jansen told <a href="https://www.fruityking.co.uk/ " target="_blank"><em>Fruity King</em></a> when asked what <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/buy-wrexham-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-his-drivers-cristiano-ronaldo-project-portuguese-goat-tipped-acquire-club-retired/blte4528b62d42bccdd" target="_blank">type of player Wrexham need to be bringing in</a> if a step up into the second tier is taken: “It would probably suit Zlatan Ibrahimovic, although he retired. But money talks and they’ve certainly got it. It would be Hollywood and he’d enjoy it, wouldn’t he?</p><p>“But it would certainly be that type, or a big target man like Chris Wood maybe, although he's not going to leave Nottingham Forest. It would all depend on whether they could get the signings that they would need to challenge and whether those players would suit.”</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Ibrahimovic is not going to end up at SToK Racecourse, but Wrexham are daring to dream big. They <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/paul-mullin-teams-move-on-transfer-advice-110-goal-striker-pecking-order-wrexham/blt028e9de11cb41723" target="_blank">already have a number of strikers on their books</a> - including Sam Smith, Jay Rodriguez, Steven Fletcher, Paul Mullin, Jack Marriott and Ollie Palmer - but are expected to freshen up those ranks in the next transfer window.</p>
