Internet Desk: Zlatan Ibrahimovic officially confirms his signing in Manchester United and he will be travelling to Manchester next week.
The 34-year-old-a free agent after leaving Paris St-Germain – has agreed personal terms worth £220,000 a week.
He announced on Instagram: “Time to let the world know. My next destination is @manchesterunited #iamcoming.”
Ibrahimovic, who won four Ligue 1 titles in his four years in Paris, will become José Mourinho’s second signing for United, following the capture of Villarreal’s Ivory Coast defender Eric Bailly.
Mourinho and Ibrahimovic have worked together before, at Internazionale in 2008-09, with the manager later saying: “A player who gave me as much as Ibra will always be in my heart. He is very special, one of the best strikers in the world.”
United, who will formally unveil Mourinho early next week, are also hopeful of securing the Borussia Dortmund playmaker Henrikh Mkhitaryan, 27, after the German club admitted they had received “a much improved” offer for the Armenian.
