Sweden’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic has announced that he is set to retire from international football at the end of Euro 2016.

He has also confirmed that he will not participate in this summer’s Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

Speaking to journalists, Ibrahimovic said: “The last game for Sweden at the Euros will be the last game for Sweden. I hope it is not tomorrow.

“I will not play at the Olympics so I hope we go as far as possible here. Either way, I will not end disappointed. I am very proud to be captain of Sweden.

“I want to thank all the supporters who have helped me achieve what I have done. Wherever I go I will always bring the Swedish flag with me and be proud of it. I will never be disappointed. Thank you everyone.”

Sweden face Belgium on Wednesday in a match they have to win if they're to stand any chance of making it through to the last 16.

Having picked up only one point so far in the tournament, the Group E fixture could well be his last game in Swedish colours.
