Zlatan Ibrahimovic has joked that he may yet stay at Paris Saint-Germain, provided that a statue of himself is erected in place of the Eiffel Tower.

The Sweden international made the comment after his side sealed their fourth successive Ligue 1 title, eight games before the end of the season, with a 9-0 thrashing of Troyes on Sunday.

Ibrahimovic, whose current club contract expires in July, admitted that he expects to bring his four-year stay in Paris to an end this summer.

"For the moment, I won't be at PSG next season," he told beIN Sports. "I still have a month and a half of competition left. What happens next year, for the moment, I don't know about it."

"If they replace the Eiffel Tower with a statue of me, I will stay at PSG,” he then jested. “I can promise that!"

The 34-year-old, who currently tops Ligue 1’s scoring charts in with 27 goals in 24 appearances, has been linked with moves to a number of the Premier League’s top clubs.

Ibrahimovic has previously hinted that he would like to play in England’s top flight and, according to French newspaper L’Equipe, the striker is one of Manchester United’s summer transfer targets.

Speaking before yesterday’s title win, PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi insisted that he wants his side’s star player to stay at the Parc des Princes.

"Zlatan is magical. He is a great player,” he said. “We are going to talk him and see what he wants to do. We want him to stay."
