Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed why he thinks the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have always beaten him to the Ballon d'Or trophy.In his illustrious career so far, the Swede has scored more than 500 goals and won major trophies in Sweden, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, France, and England.
However, despite finding the back of the net for 23 years straight, his best finish in the Ballon D'Or voting has been fourth, and the 40-year-old striker now has a hypothesis as to why only a duopoly has existed throughout most of his career."If you speak and say what you think, you can't get them. "It's easy to give them to Mr Nice Guy. It doesn't change anything for me, it doesn't make me better or worse."'s prestigious accolade between 2008 and 2017 were Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, with Croatia midfielder Luka Modric ending the duo's outright dominance in 2018.
Ibrahimovic has never won the iconic Golden Ball, nor has the seemingly polarising figure won the UEFA Champions League, but he believes that once he hangs his boots up, he will go down as one of the greatest footballers ever to grace a pitch. "I think the greatest sadness will be yours, as you won't get to watch me play anymore," the Milan hitman added.Zlatan is currently trying to help the Rossoneri capture their first Scudetto since his first stint with the club in the 2010/11 campaign.Here are 10 African football legends that have never played at a FIFA World Cup:
