( CNN ) -- Swedish poster boy Zlatan Ibrahimovic has delivered again -- the Swedish Postal Service is to honor the Paris Saint-Germain forward with his own range of stamps . Each year up to 60 different stamp motifs are commissioned in Sweden , with the initial decision about the subject made by the Postal Service 's group of experts , with the finished Ibrahimovic product going on sale in March 2014 . `` I 've got to be on a corner of the stamp and it will be fun to see the finished result , '' said the 32-year-old striker in a statement . `` It 's a great honor to be on a postage stamp , and I 'm very proud to be selected , '' added the Sweden captain . `` I get a lot of bills and there are rarely great stamps . Maybe that will change now ! '' 2013 has been something of an annus mirabilis for Ibrahimovic . The PSG forward has been nominated for the 2013 FIFA Ballon d'Or , an award given to the world 's finest footballer , while an audacious overhead kick scored against England is a contender to win the prize for the year 's best goal . His talents have inspired a vast array of tributes , from the monstrous Zlatan burger on sale in a Paris cafe to a lovingly-composed flick book of his recent audacious volley against Bastia . His autobiography -- entitled `` I am Zlatan Ibrahimovic '' -- containing the frank and forthright views for which the Swede is renowned is also selling well . A two-legged playoff against Portugal , with the first match scheduled for Friday , will decide whether Ibrahimovic can deliver his country to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil . Regardless of the outcome of the tie , which will conclude with the second leg in Stockholm on November 19 , a range of Zlatan-inspired stamps will be released on March 27 . `` We know from experience that people choose stamps based on their images , '' said Britt-Inger Hahne , director of stamps at the Swedish postal service . `` I am very proud and happy to announce that next year we will publish a booklet of stamps picturing Zlatan Ibrahimovic . `` If these stamps can help us reach new audiences , people that today neither send nor receive letters , that would be fantastic . '' Ibrahimovic 's PSG teammate Thiago Silva is in no doubt as to the former Barcelona forward 's talents . Silva hopes Ibrahimovic will head off competition from four-time winner and former Barca teammate Lionel Messi and Real Madrid 's Cristiano Ronaldo to lift the Ballon d'Or in Zurich on January 13 . `` As a football fan I love Ibrahimovic . I 'm sure that he will be in the top three for the Ballon d'Or , '' Brazil captain Silva told Sky Italia . `` It will be difficult for him to win but I think he deserves it as he is performing better than Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi .
