Inter forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic has decided to remain in Italy due to family reasons, according to the Swedish daily Sportbladet.

According to a well-informed source, there will be no transfer to the Spanish Primera Division, mainly due to the fact that his wife, Helena, and their two children have adapted to the Italian style and language.

Also, his children have already been registered for the next scholastic year and apparently 'Ibra' has already purchased a new house just outside Milan to enjoy a bit more tranquility.

The family of the former Juventus player has lived in the city centre of Milan for the past few years and they are looking forward to move to the new villa, which is currently undergoing some work.

A few years ago Zinedine Zidane left Italy for Spain due to family reasons; this time it is the other way round for Ibrahimovic, with the family of the Swedish player preferring the peninsula to the Spanish lifestyle.
