Zlatan Ibrahimovic refused to rule out his chances of playing for Sweden in the World Cup on as he launched his Major League Soccer career with the Los Angeles Galaxy.

The veteran striker is at the centre of a national guessing-game in Sweden over whether he may or may not be in the squad for this year's World Cup. Ibrahimovic was coy about playing in Russia.

Nobody needs to call anybody. If they want, I'm there."
