Ibra staying at Barca

Ibra staying at Barca

Zlatan Ibrahimovic's agent has again reiterated his client's desire to stay with Barcelona despite Pep Guardiola's fresh comments.

Speaking on Monday the Barca coach stated the Swedish striker's future was in his own hands, leaving the door open for a possible exit.

Despite it being a somewhat disappointing debut campaign with the Catalan giants, Ibrahimovic is determined to prove his worth.

The 28-year-old Swede, who has been linked with Manchester City and AC Milan, is determined and eager to impress this season.

His agent Mino Raiola has ruled out the possibility of the talented striker returning to Serie A ahead of the new campaign.

"He has a contract with Barca and he wants to show his value 100 per cent," he told calcionews24.com .

"He is focused and he wants to start the season in style with Barcelona.

"All of the new stories talking of a return to Italy are totally without foundation."
