Man Utd in talks with Zlatan Ibrahimovic over £600k-a-week deal? Mourinho keen to sign him

With German newspaper, Bild, reporting that a deal is already in place for Jose Mourinho to take over at the end on the year, rumors will start to circulate on who ‘the special one’ will want to bring into the team. Jose does have a history of big money signings and the likelihood is, he’ll be making big changes.

Corriere dello Sport suggest that the club is currently in talks with Zlatan Ibrahimovic over deal to bring the incredible Swede to the north of England. How much would it cost to secure his services? Well, Corriere dello Sport suggest that a £600,000-a-week deal is needed, doubling what the clubs highest earner, Wayne Rooney, is paid.

They would save money on a transfer fee as the player’s contract expires at the end of the season and he has made no excuses about the fact that he wants to leave France. PSG are also happy to get the wages down after falling foul of FIFA financial fair play rules.

Would Zlatan be a success in the Premier League? He has been a success everywhere else he played but as we all know, the Premier League is a different ball game to every other League in the world.

Zlatan almost signed for Arsenal when he was a youngster but Arsenal wanted his to have a trial at the club before he signed. The only problem was: “Zlatan doesn’t do auditions.” I think Arsene might be regretting not giving him a chance.
