Paris Saint-Germain footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic has named himself in a self-compiled Dream Team alongside Barcelona striker Lionel Messi.

The Swede striker labelled himself as "the God" and termed the Barcelona player "the genius" while naming his best 11, reports Xinhua.

With his Argentine and Brazilian teammates Maxwell and Thiago Silva leading the defence, the former AC Milan striker also named Juventus's veteran goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, 1998 World Cup winner Lilian Thuram and 2006 World Cup-winning skipper of Italy Fabio Cannavaro.

Other names to make the 33-year-old Swede's squad included Arsenal legend Patrick Vieira, Blaugrana midfield duo Xavi and Andres Iniesta, and former Czech skipper Pavel Nedved.

Ibrahimovic, however, didn't name Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo and 2002 World Cup winner Ronaldo in the squad.
