Inter Milan have confirmed they are in talks with
Barcelona about the sale of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, with Samuel Eto'o
also up for discussion.
Inter supremo Massimo Moratti has been locked in talks
with Barca over the past week about numerous subjects.
They have already agreed terms on Maxwell's move from Italy to
Catalunya, whilst they are set to take Alexander Hleb from the
Spanish club.
Now they are also talking about the possible transfer of Sweden
striker Ibrahimovic, which could also see Eto'o move to the San
Siro.
"We have closed the negotiations for Maxwell and now we are
trying to end the talks over Hleb," Moratti told Sky Sport
Italia.
"Obviously we have spoken about other things also, because they
were interested to know something about Ibrahimovic and to talk
about Eto'o, two players at the same level.
"There is the possibility to do an operation with these two
players.
"What are the odds of Ibrahimovic leaving Inter? I don't like to
frame things this way, I don't know right now, we'll have to wait
and see what the player wants.
"In any case, if the matter should be taken all the way to
completion, then Eto'o would be in the deal."
Reports in both Spain and Italy suggest the clubs are close to
agreeing terms on the deal which would see Inter receive 40million
euros plus Eto'o and Hleb on loan for a year.
