In an in-house interview, Arijon Ibrahimović said he is willing to play wherever he can for Bayern Munich, even as Luis Díaz's understudy.  

"I can play anywhere up front; on the left, right, as a number 10 or as a striker. In Heidenheim I even played a few games as a right-back.

“Lucho [Díaz] is a really good and funny guy who brings a lot of energy. I'm looking forward to spending time with him and I can learn a lot from.

"Especially his flair for the game and his creativity. When we were in Tokyo three years ago, we played against Liverpool and Lucho. We swapped jerseys after the final whistle”.

As for the upcoming 2026-27 campaign, Ibrahimović has set his goals for the season with Vincent Kompany's team:

“I want to get as many minutes as possible – whether in the Bundesliga, the DFB Pokal or the Champions League. And I want to win as many titles as possible with FC Bayern.”
