Zlatan Ibrahimovic will not leave Barcelona for Milan, according to his agent Mino Raiola, who has killed off all possibilities in relation to a summer move.

Sport had claimed Milan were ready to sanction an €80 million deal to take him away from Camp Nou after the arrival there of David Villa from Valencia.

However, Raiola has said the only guaranteed pact Ibrahimovic has with any club is that he will stay at Barcelona.

"Ibrahimovic will stay at Barca. Every week journalists send him
to Chelsea, Juventus and so on. But he's not on the market, Barca have already said this," Raiola told Sky Sport 24.

"He doesn't feel like he is on the market because the club said that he is not for sale. He is happy with his season, even though he suffered injury."

Raiola also passed judgement on Jose Mourinho's expected move to Real Madrid. Mourinho coached Ibrahimovic for a year before selling him to Barcelona in return for Samuel Eto'o last summer.

"Perhaps Mourinho had no more motivation in Italy after winning everything with Inter," he said.
