PSG forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic is regarded as one the best players in the world, and he now has his own search engine, over on zlaaatan.com.

The search engine, works (and looks) exactly like Google, but every search will automatically link in the word Zlatan too.

Like Google, there is a "I'm feeling lucky" section, though this one is simply "I'm feeling Zlatan". This button, however, takes you straight to the mercurial Swedish striker's wikipedia page.

Since its launch last Thursday, the Zlatan search has been used by over 100,000 people worldwide.
