Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has fired back at Zlatan Ibrahimovic's remarks about Erling Haaland's potential.
Ibrahimovic was recently asked about the rising Man City star improving under Guardiola, to which he replied "That depends on the ego that Guardiola has. If he allows himself to be bigger than Haaland or not. He didn't allow me or the others to be as big."Zlatan Takes Aim At Guardiola
The AC Milan star has been a big fan of Guardiola since their time together at Barcelona, with the striker not happy with the way he was treated at the Camp Nou.
Guardiola sarcastically claimed that Ibrahimovic was right about his ego and says he can write another book.
"He is right, he is completely right," he said, sarcastically, as per Manchester Evening News.
"In this club, in this team, my ego is beyond every other person, every player.
"I don't like it when Erling scores three goals, and all the highlight is for him. I am so jealous! Honestly, so jealous!
"I said 'Erling, please no more goals, otherwise the newspapers won't talk about me, and just about me'. He is right, he knows me perfectly. He can write another book."
