It Looks Like Brexit Will Even Impact Zlatan Ibrahimovic

It Looks Like Brexit Will Even Impact Zlatan Ibrahimovic

He will be furious.

Brexit will more than likely affect us all in the coming months but should footballers worry about it's impact?

You're all probably thinking, 'surely footballers earn enough money anyways?!' - well you're right but the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who has just moved to Manchester United in a multi-million pound move, will probably find this statistic fairly annoying.

Before the EU referendum, Zlatan reportedly agreed a £220,000 per-week deal at Old Trafford but it looks like this wage packet will have fallen 10% in value as a result of Brexit.

Because the pound has fallen in value against the dollar and the euro, it means that Ibrahimovic will lose £22,000 a week, which is more than £1 million over his year-long contract.

I'm sure he doesn't really care that much i mean - he's getting 220 THOUSAND POUNDS per week.

We think he'll survive...
