He's won the lot and played with some of the best players in world football.
So, needless to say, his dream XI is brimmed with ridiculous talent.
The man himself is up front with Argentina superstar Lionel Messi and Brazil hero Ronaldinho. The towering-striker played with Messi and Ronaldinho while at Barcelona and AC Milan, respectively.Advert
In midfield, Patrick Viera, Xavi and Pavel Nedved get the nod. Ibrahimovic was teammates with Viera at both Juventus and Inter Milan after the Frenchman left Arsenal in 2005, and rubbed shoulders with Xavi and Nedved at Barcelona and Juventus, respectively.
Lillian Thuram, Thiago Silva, Alessandro Nesta and Maxwell make up the defensive line with Gianluigi Buffon between the sticks.

Julio Cesar, Andres Iniesta, Fabio Cannavaro, Gennaro Gattuso and Clarence Seedorf are all named as substitutes.
Ibrahimovic uploaded a picture of his dream XI on social media, accompanied with the words:
"In I Am Football I present my dream team. I also put in 50 pages with complete statistics and fun facts from my career, like how many goals I have done with my right foot and how many minutes I played with Inter," he wrote.
"It will give you something to talk about this Christmas."
