2007 and 2009 . In addition, Ibrahimović would finish as the league's top scorer in 2008–09 and win three straight Scudetti . In the summer of 2009 , he transferred to Barcelona , before moving back to Serie A football the following season, joining Milan in a deal that made him one of the highest-paid players in the world.


He won another Scudetto with Milan in the
2010–11 season . He joined Paris Saint-Germain in July 2012. During his four-season stay at PSG, Ibrahimović won four consecutive Ligue 1 titles , three Coupes de la Ligue , two Coupes de France and was the top scorer in Ligue 1 for three seasons.
