Zlatan Ibrahimovic's presence is always felt around Manchester United, according to Ander Herrera, such is his winning mentality.
As speculation continues over the Swede's future, his Old Trafford colleague has discussed the way the striker deals with the media as part of his persona that demands the best.
"[Ibrahimovic] is a genius, he's very intense because he wants to win everything, even football-tennis," Herrera said to Radio MARCA.
"He assumes this role of doing or saying what he likes in front of the media because he does not care, he can say that he'll score 30 goals or is the best because he can afford to."
The Spaniard also stated his admiration for international and club teammate David De Gea, who he hopes will stick around at United in spite of Real Madrid's interest.
"I wish I could play with him for a long time, for me he's the best," added Herrera. "Never before has a goalkeeper at Manchester United been voted as the best player by the team and the fans, he's managed it three years in a row.
"He's a phenomenon and has a great gift in his reflexes, I want him to continue as he can be a United legend if he wants to.
"His move to Madrid did not go through and he adapted very well to that situation, playing out of his skin. That says a lot about him."
Finally, ahead of the Champions League tie between Leicester City and Atletico Madrid, Herrera insisted the Los Rojiblancos are the better team, giving them an '80%' chance of progression.
