Zlatan Ibrahimovic will be the
"extra man" for Manchester United after Christmas after re-signing for
the club, says manager Jose Mourinho.
The former Sweden striker, who scored 28 goals in 48 games for United last season, has signed a one-year deal.
Ibrahimovic, 35, was released in June after his season was ended prematurely by a knee injury.
"Let him do his work, step by step and come back when he is ready," said Mourinho.
"He won't be ready for the group phase of the Champions League. No chance of that.
"I just think he will be the extra man for us in the second part of season. The second part of the season is normally January, after Christmas, when the transfer window reopens."
