Zlatan Ibrahimovic could be set to turn out for Sweden at the 2016 Olympics after the U21 side’s late draw with Portugal in the European U21 Championship.
Simon Tibbling's 89th-minute strike earned the Swedes a 1-1 draw in the Czech Republic, sending both sides through to the semi-finals and also confirming their place in the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro next summer.
With each team allowed to choose three over-age players in their 18-man Olympic squads, Ibrahimovic’s name is already top of the list for Swedish fans.
The PSG striker and senior national team captain has previously said that, although it might be difficult, he would be interested in representing Sweden in Brazil.
"It's all about how the situation looks at that point but if I have the chance to represent my Sweden at an Olympics, why not?" Ibrahimovic told the Sportbladet newspaper earlier this month.
"We'll have to see how the situation is... but if I'm available, absolutely," the 33-year-old added.
Sweden face Denmark in Prague on Saturday, with Portugal taking on Germany in Olomouc earlier in the day.
The final will take place in the Czech capital on Tuesday.
