The news first broke via the country’s Instagram handle an hour ago after he was named in their latest squad to face Georgia and Kosovo for the world cup qualifiers, and the post has been liked 24,216 times. And counting.

Manager Janne Andersson was reportedly said to have played a part in his return to the Blue and Yellow fold.

“When Zlatan opened up for games in the national team, it felt natural and important to meet and discuss this as soon as possible”, Andersson said.

“I am glad that we managed to get a meeting so quickly.”

So, Zlatan at the Euros, yet again. How does that sound? You can be rest assured the Euro defenders don’t like the thought of that.
