Paris Saint-Germain striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has insisted that he 'does not understand' why his salary has attracted such interest.
The 30-year-old, who joined the French club from AC Milan in the summer, is understood to pick up a wage in the region of £12m a year.
"Quality is not free. I don't understand all the criticism. After all, the more money I earn, the more tax France receives," he told Eurosport.
The Swede has scored five goals in four games for the club this season.
