Zlatan Ibrahimovic produced an epic line when asked to explain his official title at AC Milan as he left the Amazon Prime panel in stitches.
Ibrahimovic ended his playing days at Milan, having enjoyed a spell at the club earlier in his career.
But he returned to the San Siro outfit to take up an executive role, with the club's owners RedBird Capital announcing that he had joined as an operating partner with the remit of being a senior advisor.
Ahead of Milan's Champions League clash against Liverpool, Ibrahimovic joined the Amazon Prime panel, where he was asked to clarify his role.
In typical Ibrahimovic fashion, he gave a priceless response.

"I am the boss, and I am in charge, all the others work for me," he said.
The panel, including Frank Lampard, Daniel Sturridge and Clarence Seedorf, erupted in laughter.

Ibrahimovic also answered a question about criticism of his work from former club director Zvonimir Boban.
"When the lion goes away, the kittens arrive. When the lion comes back, the kittens disappear," he said. "The level is very low, there is too much talk but I only think about working.
"I was away for personal reasons, but I have been here since day one."
The Swede touched on Milan's business during the summer transfer window, too, highlighting the signing of former Chelsea forward Tammy Abraham, who was snapped up from AS Roma.

"It went exactly as we wanted, everything we looked for and was missing we got," he added. "The last one was [Tammy] Abraham, to provide an extra reinforcement in attack."
Ibrahimovic enters Milan's boardroom, having enjoyed a distinguished career as a player.
He played for the likes of Ajax, Juventus, Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United and LA Galaxy.
