The 34-year-old moved to Old Trafford earlier this summer at the end of his PSG contract and has now been backed to return the club to the top of the Premier League.
The pair worked together at Inter, and the Special One believes his new signing’s incredible trophy pedigree will serve as an example to all during his time at Old Trafford.
The Sweden international has been heavily linked to the Premier League side and the former Red Devils star feels a transfer would work out for both parties.
The Sweden boss insists it would “not be okay” for his star man to leave camp during Euro 2016 to put an end to speculation surrounding his future by signing for the Red Devils.
The Gunners boss has denied reports he is interested in the PSG striker, who is out of contract in the summer, and says he has enough quality strikers at his disposal.
Ahead of tonight’s PSG v Chelsea Champions League tie, Tommy Martin looks at how the controversial Swedish striker has managed to make himself likeable, for all his many flaws.
GARDAÍ ARE SET to be granted new powers to use facial-recognition technology that could lead to the rapid identification of criminals.
The technology enables police forces to carry out automated searches of video footage for suspects in criminal investigations.

Minister for Justice Helen McEntee is expected to announce the move at the Garda Representative Association annual conference today.
The minister will say the introduction of facial-recognition technology will greatly assist murder, child exploitation and missing persons investigations.
The Irish Council for Civil Liberties (ICCL) said it is “strongly opposed” to the technology being used by law enforcement, saying An Garda Síochána has a “poor record on data protection”.
“FRT [facial-recognition technology] and other biometric surveillance tools enable mass surveillance and discriminatory targeted surveillance
“They have the capacity to identify and track people everywhere they go, undermining the right to privacy and data protection, the right to free assembly and association, and the right to equality and non-discrimination,” the ICCL said.
So, today we’re asking: How do you feel about gardaí using facial recognition technology to identify suspects?
