Blanc confident Ibrahimovic will end goal drought

Laurent Blanc has no concerns over the form of Zlatan Ibrahimovic even though his star striker has failed to score for Paris Saint-Germa

in so far this season.

Ibrahimovic has been PSG s attacking inspiration since arriving from Milan in 2012, leading the club to three successive Ligue 1 titles and scoring 106 goals in 129 appearances in all competitions before the start of this campaign.

The Sweden captain has not scored in four games in 2015-16, though, and missed a glorious chance in PSG s 1-1 draw with Reims on Saturday.

But, speaking on Monday, coach Blanc said: Ibrahimovic is not in the best possible form. He is finding it more difficult to score goals than usual [this season]. 

It happened last year too, but I think he will recover quickly.

[Is he] on the decline? You will have an answer soon. He will give you an answer on the pitch. And that s what matters most.

Ibrahimovic s next opportunity to break his duck will come in Tuesday s home clash with Guingamp.

Blanc added: We are disappointed with the game against Reims, unfortunately we will get matches like this again. We can t go all season at the top level.

We must improve our efficiency, especially in attack. We created chances but were not effective.

We will try to put a very competitive team [out against Guingamp] because you have to win games like these.
