AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic says he's proud of his role in the development of French football.

The Swede insists he was key to PSG becoming a global name when he was there.

I love France, I spent four years in France and took French football to a worldwide level. This isn't arrogance, it's confidence in one's own means," he said.

On PSG striker Kylian Mbappe, Ibrahimovic said: I am not worried about him, he'll surely win another World Cup, but in Qatar I was sure Argentina would win."

On the taunts of Argentina's players after the World Cup final, he added: Messi is considered the best player in history and will be remembered for winning the World Cup, but the others? I cannot respect, as a professional, those who behave like that."
