The veteran striker’s future was on hold for a while, but it was confirmed on Thursday that he will be at United for another year.
Ibrahimovic missed the closing stages of last season with a cruciate ligament injury, but was still in high demand.
“We had a couple of teams reaching out and wanted ‘Ibracadabra’ in their team but I had such a great year with United,” he told ESPN.
“We had a great season — we won three trophies, fantastic guys, a coach that I know from before. My family were happy.
“It’s not always about the sporting thing. I’m in a situation I have to think 360 degrees around me. Happiness has no value.”
“I think the team’s much stronger this season. Obviously we lost Rooney, a legend for the club, but we signed three new players and they’ll make the team stronger,” he said.
“Signing Romelu Lukaku makes us even stronger. He brings different attributes as a striker than me or Marcus Rashford. He’s a powerful guy.”
