4) Zlatan Ibrahimovic – Paris Saint-Germain

Zlatan

There is hardly any list of incredible feats where Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s name has not been included. The Swede has played for some of the biggest clubs in the world and has won a host of trophies.

After helping AC Milan win the Serie A title in 2011 and going close in 2012 he decided to make the big money switch to newly rich Paris Saint-Germain. Just like Manchester City PSG had a project in mind with the ultimate objective being European domination.

But their first priority was to win the Ligue 1 after Lyon had dominated in the 2000s. Although the French giants made several other signings it was very clear Zlatan was the key to their success in the league.

The Swede netted 30 goals in 34 appearances as PSG strolled to the title in 2013 finishing with 83 points 12 ahead of second-placed Marseille. For the next three years, there was only one team that would win the Ligue 1 title as Zlatan broke records in his last season with PSG before moving to Manchester United.
