Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has praised new signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic, describing him as "one of the best strikers in the world".

The Sweden international, who played under the Portuguese boss at Inter Milan, put pen to paper on a deal at Old Trafford on Friday.

Mourinho, who took charge at Man Utd after the sacking of Louis van Gaal, told reporters: "Zlatan needs no introduction. The statistics speak for themselves. Ibra is one of the best strikers in the world.

"He has won the most important league championships in the world of football, now he has the opportunity to play in the best league in the world and I know he will grasp this opportunity and will work hard to help the team win titles.

"I am certain that his talent will delight fans at Old Trafford next season and that his experience will be invaluable in helping to develop the younger players in the squad."

Ibrahimovic has scored 392 goals in 677 career games and won a trophy every season since 2001, including 13 league titles.
