Auf Wiedersehen, Adieu

Pep Guardiola and Zlatan Ibrahimovic might not have won the Champions League for their current clubs, but they’ve at least gone out on a high.

Guardiola will leave Bayern Munich for Manchester City this summer, and made sure his successor Carlo Ancelotti will inherit a double-winning team.

Bayern’s German cup final against Borussia Dortmund ended goalless, but the Bundesliga champions won 4-3 on penalties.

We don’t know where Ibrahimovic will end up, but the Swedish striker has confirmed this season will be his last with Paris Saint-Germain,

And the veteran played his part in a 4-2 Coupe de France final win over Marseille, scoring twice to bring his season tally to 50 goals from 51 appearances.

His next task will be to help his country escape a tough Euro 2016 group also including Italy, Belgium and Ireland, but he’s shown repeatedly that he could still do a job for a European club next season.
