Jump straight to the 2:03 mark for the message at the video below. |
Appearing in another advert for Eurosport, the Frenchman discussed many of the hot topics from the week in the world of football, including the Euro 2016 semi-finals and the Twitter referendum on his bid to become the next England manager.
Cantona, still an icon in the red half of Manchester from his days in a United shirt, reserved a special mention for Ibrahimovic - a man with a similar level of charisma to King Eric. Although the 50-year-old made sure to let the Swede know who was still on the throne.
'I have a personal message for Zlatan,' begins Cantona. 'You decided to go red, it is the best choice you ever made.
'When you walk into the Theatre of Dreams and you feel the ghosts of the legends who have been there before, when you score a goal right in front of the Stretford End; when you hear the crowd chanting your name; when your heart beats so strong that it bursts out of your chest; when you feel that you will love them as much as they love; you will know, my fiend, that finally you have made it home.
Before adding: 'Just one last thing. There can only be one King in Manchester. You can be the Prince if you want to and the No 7 shirt is yours if you are interested. This is my welcome gift to you.
'The King is gone. Long live the Prince.'
