Former LA Galaxy player Michael Ciani has revealed some of the insights he was given in a private conversation with Swedish star Ibrahimovic.
It is no secret that Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Edinson Cavani did not hit it off as best buddies when they linked up at Paris Saint-Germain. But now stories about their relationship have been revealed by a former teammate which confirm the opinion that the Swede had of the Uruguayan.
Zlatan's hate for Cavani
Michael Ciani, who shared the changing room with Zlatan at LA Galaxy, told RMC Sport about some of the striker's confessions.
"If you are close with Cavani, Ibra doesn't like it. Either you are with Ibra or against him.
"He told me that everything was fine with Laurent Blanc at PSG. The only person he did not get along with was Cavani. He told me that he had only hated three or four teammates in his entire career... and one of them was Cavani."
Recently, a new LA Galaxy full back, Emiliano Insúa, revealed that he was made well aware of his new team mates’ opinions of Zlatan Ibrahimovic upon his arrival.

For all the years Edinson Cavani spent playing out of position just to accommodate Zlatan Ibrahimovic, I understand he's outspoken and can be disrespectful atimes, but Edi should be the last one you should hate... it's just the problem with these egoistical players Zlatan and Neymar, they want everyone to bow down so they walk all over them but Cavani will never be that guy... there's a difference between being nice and being naive!

I love Ibra. He is indeed my favourite player as a Rossoneri. However, do not let out nasty judgement over Cavani based on a one sided opinion. Cavani is one humble player and a nice human being. Just do some research about him and you'll all know at once that he is a nice dude with moral unlike most of the other footballers. Remember Cavani is the only player who did not mock Halaand? Have some respect.
