Jose: Ibra Has 1 Year Left At The Top

Jose Mourinho expects next season to be Zlatan Ibrahimovic's last at football's top level and expects it to be with Manchester United.

Ibrahimovic, 35, who has made a huge impact since arriving at Old Trafford, signed a one-year deal last summer when arriving on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain, with an option for a further 12 months.

Mourinho is confident that option will be taken up but he expects next season to be the striker's last playing at "the highest level".

"I'm totally convinced he is going to stay," Mourinho said. "He came with the intention to stay two years, but in the minds of everyone the first year is going better than every expectation.

"He knows we are going to try again to improve next season and try to share with him, in a fantastic way, probably the last year of his career at the highest level.

"So I'm convinced that he's staying, he's adapted to the club, to the situation.

"I don't see any problem with his family. I gave him the possibility of a few days off to go to Sweden, but he doesn't want to, he prefers to stay here, so I'm totally convinced he is going to stay."
