Ibra move to Barça 'done'
Wednesday 10 June, 2009

A deal has been done that will see Inter striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic move to Barcelona in exchange for Samuel Eto'o and £10m, according to El Mundo Deportivo.

The Spanish newspaper believes an announcement will be made on June 30 once the board have formally ratified the transfer.

Ibrahimovic has publicly expressed his desire to leave Inter and at the same time taken to praising European champions Barcelona.

Last week, he called their style of football 'futuristic' and drew compliments from Blaugrana Coach Pep Guardiola.

The 27-year-old Swede no longer feels Inter can help him become recognised as the best player in the world.

He feels he needs to win the Champions League, which Inter haven't won since 1965 when Helenio Herrera was at the helm.

Ibrahimovic is coming off his best ever season in Italy, after scoring 25 goals in Serie A, making him Capocannoniere.
