Zlatan Ibrahimovic's contract with PSG runs out at the end of the season
The Swede scored the opener in Paris Saint-Germain's 2-1 win over Chelsea in the Champions League on Tuesday night but it was his comments after the game that made headlines.
When speaking to the British press, Ibrahimovic refused to rule out a move to England when his contract at PSG expires at the end of the season.
"I’d love to see him play in the Premier League and surely he’d want the opportunity to play in England," Keown told the Daily Mail.
"To be honest, given the lack of competition in the French league I can’t understand why he hasn't wanted to come here sooner.
"Zlatan has an arrogance where he wants to go looking for the ball to try and make things happen. His manager has to keep him where he’s at his most effective.
"I don’t know whether Arsene Wenger would gamble on him – Zlatan had a chance years ago at Arsenal but turned it down – and given the wages and his age, it doesn’t feel like an Arsenal deal.

"I’m not sure Chelsea would take him either – imagine the clash between him and Diego Costa! I just don’t think you could play those two together.
"I doubt very much Pep Guardiola would take him at Man City given their fall-out at Barcelona and I don’t think United would take the punt either because they need a long-term option up front.
"Of course Zlatan’s wages and profile means he’d most likely head to one of the big clubs, but I’d be fascinated if he went somewhere like Newcastle.
"It’s unlikely, I know, but imagine him being a new No 9 up there! His wages might be extortionate but there will be a lot of money swirling around in the Premier League next season."
