Zlatan agent wants talks

Zlatan agent wants talks

Zlatan Ibrahimovic's agent wants talks with Barcelona's new president Sandro Rosell over the player's future.

The 28-year-old Swedish striker has not set Camp Nou alight in his first season in Spain, following a big-money move from Inter Milan.

And with David Villa moving to the club, he could see himself fall out of the side next term in the Primera Division.

Speculation has mounted regarding transfer interest from Premier League outfit Manchester City and Italian side AC Milan.

Ibrahimovic is thought to favour a move to the Rossoneri over a switch to City, because of the lure of UEFA Champions League football.

His agent Mino Raiola wants to get the ball rolling and sort out the forward's future, although he expects it will be a long summer.

He said: "I want to advance this subject soon but I think that this summer it will be very long for the operations."

Rosell has recently taken over from Joan Laporta as Barca president, and Arsenal's Cesc Fabregas is thought to be his number one target.
