Ibrahimovic caught in bar rumpus

The giant Swede, who was a target for Sunderland before they snapped up Tore Andre Flo, was out with three friends around 4am at Spy Bar in the city.

Although his pals have been accused of assault, it was claimed Ibrahimovic molested a young woman, although the police do not appear to be considering the matter to be very serious.

"He was reported to the police for molesting," stated nightclub owner Fadde Darwich to Sportbladet.

"I feel it is sad when such things happen.

"He is an icon for many of the youngsters, and he should behave accordingly."

Agent Anders Carlsson feels the matter may have been exaggerated.

"Zlatan wants to wait before commenting on the matter," he declared.

"We will wait and see what happens with the police report, which has now been handed in.

"He does not feel he has done anything wrong."
