Zlatan Ibrahimovic has dismissed speculation he could move to the Premier League when his deal with Paris Saint-German expires at the end of the season.

The 34-year-old striker, who has won domestic titles in the Netherlands, Italy, Spain and France, will be out of contract in the summer but says the window of opportunity for him to play in England has all but closed.

"I think it is too late to come to England. I am very happy in PSG, I have my last six months and let us see what happens afterwards," Ibrahimovic said after firing Sweden into the 2016 European Championships at Denmark's expense on Tuesday.

"I am enjoying it, I enjoy every day on the field. While I am playing at the top level, I just want to enjoy it and do my thing.
