THE SAGA continues.
There were reports in Spain that suggested AC Milan and FC Barcelona have found an agreement over Zlatan Ibrahimovic. It was reported that Milan offered Marco Borriello on loan in exchange for Ibra.
However, according to his agent, Mino Raiola, a deal is far from reached and a loan deal is way off the table. The agent also used the opportunity to hit back at Pep Guardiola.

“Zlatan being loaned out would be shameful. You can’t loan someone like him,” Raiola told Tuttosport.
“If he were to leave Barcelona, it would be forever. A wage cut is also laughable, you can tell that you don’t know me. He has a four-year contract and my advice is for him to stay here.
“This is a fantastic club, FC Barcelona and not FC Guardiola. To give us a change of scenery, we’d need valid arguments. I didn’t give the all-clear for these negotiations.
“Galliani can talk to President Sandro Rosell all he likes, but when you step into a Rolls Royce dealership, you need to have the money.”
On tough relationship with Barca coach, Raiola said: “Guardiola is not as precise and perfect as people think. He has problems with himself. He slammed the door on Ibra, who cost €70m last summer.
“He ought to have twice as much respect as he does for David Villa, who was bought for half that. Guardiola is inadequate, totally confused and Ibra cannot work well with him.
“Negotiations with Milan are very difficult, as the parties are a long way away from an agreement. It’s going to be a long week.”
It is now reported that Manchester City plan a €40 million raid for the 28-year-0ld and this will pave the way of City Brazilian star Robinho to Milan after the 26-year-old said that “I will play either in Italy or in Spain.”

time 12:20 – Alexander Alciato, sent to Sky Sports, revealed an important background: in the evening, in fact, Zlatan Ibrahimovic was willing to decrease the salary, but is not yet known how much. AC Milan and Barcelona at the moment they are dealing on a loan, annual or biennial, followed by the acquisition of the former ex Inter
yeah right,,,raiola you kill ibra’s career,,,it’s not about the money you a**h*le,,,
It’s funny cause Barca even can’t pay their players and staff salary. They had a big debt about 125 million pounds! and they must borrow some money to pay it. With Milan, Ibra still have his sallary every month, even not as big with Barca.
Raiola is a horrible agent to have just looking for money Pep is a great and very respected man and a fabulous coach too. Also Ibrahimavic would be better off in milan who need him but this agent just want’s money. Pep has class and Raiola does not, simple as that.
