The Swede, having suffered an unfortunate injury, was sidelined for seven months, and it has been only a week since he returned to the squad and began showcasing good form yet again.
The forward entered the Brighton clash after the half-time interval, alike the Israeli who replaced Glenn Murray, in his third appearance since his return from the injury.
The pair exchanged their shirts at full-time, tempting Hemed to post a picture of the jersey along with the caption: “You don’t change shirts with Zlatan, Zlatan’s shirt changes you. Thank you legend.”
This thoughtful act of the veteran forward will be forgotten neither by the Brighton forward, nor the supporters.
