But the historical great set tongues wagging on social media with a throwback picture to his much younger days on Friday. The image is simply captioned 'Balkan roots' and was sent from his popular Instagram account, which has 45.3million followers. A footballing all-time great posted this picture of his youth on Instagram... but who is it? His Instagram post is currently liked by almost 1.1million people, and among more than 5,000 commenters was Barcelona midfielder Miralem Pjanic, who was born in then-Yugoslavia and represents Bosnia and Herzegovina at international level. The man in question is Zlatan Ibrahimovic, now 39, currently in his second spell at Italian giants AC Milan.
