Manchester United fans are eagerly anticipating a live event hosted by Zlatan Ibrahimovic at which it's thought the striker could confirm whether he is moving to Old Trafford.

The Sweden international, currently out of contract after his contract expired at PSG, is launching his new clothing range A-Z Sportswear with a Facebook live event today at 5pm. However there is speculation he could reveal more than just his new threads by simultaneously announcing he will join Manchester United.

Earlier this week he teased fans when he said: "There will be a big announcement on June 7. It will be this summer's big bomb. It feels good, feels better than good. A lot will happen with this news, so hopefully you'll all enjoy."

When pushed on whether it involved his future, he said: "Come and see on the 7th."

The event will be live on Ibrahimovic's Facebook page during which he has promised he will answer questions from those watching.

Promoting the event Ibrahimovic warned: "Make sure you are there otherwise I will hunt you!"
