Elias Ymer: 'There are many similarities between me and Zlatan Ibrahimovic'
In an interview to Expressen the Swedish player Elias Ymer spoke about his admiration for his compatriot Zlatan Ibrahimovic, a very-well recognized football star of his country. Ymer said: There are fewer people who influenced my personality more during my education.
The good thing about Zlatan is that he is more than a footballer. He improved showing that everything is possible. I red his book and I saw all his documentaries. There are many similarities with him in difficult situations. When certain things get tough or you feel hopeless, I think about how he deals with situations and how he keeps fighting.
It's motivating. It's something I often think about. I thought it was a good read for all the younger people."
Being patient will be important. A year ago I struggled reaching the Challenger tour main draws."
From then there were a lot of difficulties. I start thinking about ending the season and then I go on holidays. I hope to recharge batteries and have some energy left for this week", said Ymer who hopes to play the Next Gen ATP Finals in Milan.
