Manchester United will bring the Community Shield home - Ibrahimovic

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has said "every trophy is very serious" as Manchester United prepare to face Leicester City in the Community Shield on Sunday.

The clash between Premier League champions Leicester and FA Cup winners United at Wembley offers Jose Mourinho the chance to win his first silverware as Old Trafford manager.

And Ibrahimovic told MUTV: "That is the first trophy game -- and that is the first trophy we will bring home.

"For me, every trophy is very serious. I have collected 30 trophies, and I want to collect more of them. I'm not satisfied until I collect everything. That's what we play for.

"I came here to win. I believe the philosophy is the same for the club, especially a club like this. They are made to win."

Ibrahimovic played for Sweden at Wembley in a 1-0 friendly defeat to England in November 2011.

Looking ahead to his return to the stadium, the 34-year-old said: "I've played with the national team in England and it's a huge stadium, so I'm looking forward to that also."
