2. Zlatan Ibrahimovic

At 34 years old, the Swedish superstar is still one of most effective and enigmatic forwards in the world. And with his time at Paris Saint-Germain reportedly coming to an end after this season, Ibrahimovic will be looking for a challenge as unusual as his personality.

“I would like to play in U.S., absolutely,” he told Yahoo Sports last year. “I think it would be an amazing experience. I see that soccer is growing a lot in U.S.”

And while he refused to say where he’d like to play, it seems like the great Zlatan might just be the player Beckham and his group of investors might be looking to bring as they work to create a franchise in Miami.

“If Ibrahimovic is still active, then I want to buy him right away. He is a magnificent physical specimen, so it’s entirely possible,” Beckham said in December to a Swedish newspaper.

Never one to shy away from the spotlight, Ibrahimovic would be the perfect signing for a Beckham-led franchise in the south of Florida.
