Ibrahimovic´s agent denies Barca talks

Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s agent has denied reports the Sweden forward has reached an agreement to join Barcelona, claiming he has yet to speak to the Catalans.

Press reports in Spain have suggested that a swap deal between Inter Milan and European champions Barca for Ibrahimovic and Samuel Eto’o has been concluded with the Cameroon striker’s wage demands in Italy the only matter still to be ironed out.

But Mino Raiola claimed Barca have yet to make contact with him about Ibra.

“The two clubs have come to an agreement, now we’ll see,” he said. “I haven’t yet spoken with Barcelona, I’ve not negotiated anything.

“As Zlatan said, if there really is concrete interest, we can arrange a transfer.”

According to press reports a deal amounting to around 45 million euros plus Eto’o for Ibrahimovic has been agreed between the two sides.
