Is Zlatan Ibrahimovic Muslim?
A shocking number of people wonder whether Zlatan Ibrahimovic professes Islam. Ibrahimovic, the Swedish striker, is definitely one of the best strikers in the world. "Ibra," as he is commonly known to football fans across the world, has not come out clearly on his religious beliefs. As such, whether he is a Muslim or not remains unclear. Like Robin Van Persie and Thierry Henry, no one can tell the religion of Ibrahimovic because he hasn’t publicly declared his religious affiliation. However, there are many hints that allow us to speculate.
