Zlatan completed his move from Inter Milan to Barcelona earlier this summer.
He told Swedish newspaper Expressen: “I cannot wait to start playing. I am improving after each day of training. Things are going really well.”
The forward also commented on his international future: “I spoke with [coach] Lars Lagerback two days ago, and we agreed that I would not play in the friendly against Finland.
“However, I will be available for the World Cup qualifiers.”
