Convicted Swedish killer Peter Mangs has revealed in a new book that he once wanted to murder Paris Saint-Germain star Zlatan Ibrahimovic over a parking space.

Mangs, who was sentenced to life in prison in 2010 for two killings and eight attempted murders over a course of seven years, was irritated by Ibrahimovic's constant illegal parking.

On one occasion, when Mangs spotted the footballer's Ferrari, the killer went to retrieve his gun, but when he had returned to the scene in Malmo, the car had gone.

According to the London Evening Standard, in the book, Mangs wrote: "I thought there would be a proper hullabaloo in the media if the gent in question were to be shot."

The criminal described Ibrahimovic's decision to regularly park illegally as "typical Balkan behaviour".
