After his chat with Djokovic, Ibrahimovic made his way courtside to watch a Green Group game between Stefanos Tsitsipas and Andrey Rublev, which the latter won in straight sets (6-4, 6-4).
This year’s ATP Tour Finals are being played at the Pala Alpitour in Turin.
Meanwhile, Zlatan had a difficult outing in Seville as Spain edged Sweden 1-0 in a World Cup qualifier at the Estadio de La Cartuja on Sunday.
With this defeat, Sweden missed out on an automatic berth for next year’s World Cup in Qatar. They will now have to battle it in the play-offs in order to qualify for the showpiece event.
However, Zlatan will miss the first-leg of the play-offs tie in March as he had received a yellow card for a shoulder barge on Spain full-back Cesar Azpilicueta.
