Zlatan Ibrahimovic announces retirement from International football. File Pic[/caption]Internet Desk: Sweden's superstar striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic announced on Tuesday that he will retire from international football after Euro 2016.
There had been some speculation that the striker could participate in the Rio Olympics, after he was named in an initial 35-man squad for the competition earlier this month, but Ibrahimovic also ruled that out.
Sweden coach Erik Hamrén said "this will be a big loss. He is unique".
Sweden's record goalscorer with 62 goals, Ibrahimovic is looking to become the first player to score in four European Championship finals. His country needs to beat Belgium on Wednesday to stand a chance of advancing to the last 16.
Ibrahimovic is out of contract with Paris Saint-Germain after four seasons in Ligue 1, but has yet to commit to a new club, though Manchester United are rumoured to be favourites to seal his signing.
