Zlatan Ibrahimovic's charge of alleged violent conduct by the Football Association following Saturday's Premier League game against Bournemouth is the latest in a number of controversies that have littered the striker's career.
Ibrahimovic appeared to elbow Tyrone Mings moments after the Cherries defender had stood on the 35-year-old Swede's head. Mings has also been charged with alleged violent conduct.
Here, we look at a selection of other unsavoury incidents involving Ibrahimovic during his 18-year career.
VAN DER VAART TACKLE (August 2004)
Ibrahimovic was publicly accused by Ajax team-mate Rafael van der Vaart of deliberately injuring him during a friendly between Sweden and Holland in a tackle which resulted in torn ankle ligaments for the Dutchman. In the row that followed, Ibrahimovic threatened to break Van der Vaart's legs.
Disciplined: Ibrahimovic was not booked for the tackle and was not publicly disciplined by Ajax, but was sold to Juventus weeks later for £12million.
FIGHT WITH OGUCHI ONYEWU (November 2010)
After falling out with Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola, Ibrahimovic was loaned to AC Milan in summer 2010 - and soon found himself involved in a training-ground fight with 6ft 5in team-mate Onyewu which the Swede claimed left him with a broken rib. Ibrahimovic reportedly lunged two-footed and then head-butted the American, before the pair were separated by team-mates.
