Pep reminds me of Mahatma Gandhi: Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has bizarrely compared Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola to Mahatma Gandhi.

The Swede is currently on loan in Serie A from the Blaugrana, and has previously been vocal in his criticism of his former boss, branding the tactician "a philosopher".

Now Ibrahimovic, who netted the winning goal in the derby clash against Inter on Sunday, said of Guardiola: "With the way he dresses and talks, he always wants to look like a philosopher. He reminds me a bit of Mahatma Gandhi when he is preparing his team.

"People say that he has won six trophies, but I could have won six trophies as the coach of that team. You can play without a coach ufffd to me, they are the best team in the world."
