He added that only a few details remained to be worked out and Ibrahimovic could be presented as a Barcelona player as early as Monday.

"I have a contract with Barcelona and am currently preparing for the new season with the team," the Belarus international told Sport Bild .
"My aim is to make the breakthrough here and be successful with this club."
