Zlatan Ibrahimovic is looking sharp, if this sensational strike in training with Sweden is anything to go by.

In a video posted on the national team's Facebook page, the enigmatic striker is whips a thundering strike around the turned head of the helpless goalkeeper, who can only watch it smash off the upright before it settles in the back of the net.

Ibrahimovic being Ibrahimovic, he does his best to treat this as nothing special, ostentatiously turning to the camera and sticking a single index finger up in the air.

If only his celebrations could be as 'effortlessly' cool as his strikes in training.

The Paris Saint-Germain player and his countrymen are currently preparing for Euro 2016 qualifier against Russia on Saturday.

Sweden are currently second in Group G, four points behind Austria, who they face in a crunch game next Tuesday night.
