Not the most excited at the idea of \u200b\u200bjoining the capital&#39;s club, the Swedish finally put his suitcases there. In Paris, Ibrahimovic then found one of his friends, Maxwell, who had not failed to make him phone calls to convince him to join him.\n<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, PSG entered a new era following its acquisition.
