Paris Saint-Germain striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed that he is still not fully fit, ahead of his side’s Ligue 1 fixture against Metz tomorrow.
The Sweden international, who has been struggling with a heel injury, returned to action when he came on as a second half substitute in PSG’s 2-0 win over league leaders Marseille before the international break.
Ibrahimovic then played the full ninety minutes of Sweden’s 1-1 draw with Montenegro in a 2016 European Championship qualifier last week before skipping his nation’s friendly fixture with France on Tuesday.
And the 33-year-old, who is expected to start against Metz, however explained that he has still not totally recovered from the heel injury.
"I am much better, but my heel is not yet 100%”, he said via his personal application Zlatan Unplugged.

“The injury is still sensitive and I feel a little unstable in some movements.
“I now need to get my body accustomed to playing regularly.”
Ibrahimovic, whose present deal with the French champions is set to expire in 2016, has made eight appearances in all competitions for the club this season, scoring seven times.
