Inter striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona over the past month.

The recent comments of both the agent and player himself have prompted the Italian press to speculate that Ibrahimovic is no longer content at the San Siro and a move to the Camp Nou could be on the cards.

According to El Mundo Deportivo, Nerazzurri president Massimo Moratti is currently in Barcelona to negotiate the sale of his star striker to the Blaugrana.

The latest reports go on to suggest that the negotiations have reached a point whereby the coach Jose Mourinho, has now given the go ahead for the sale to take place.

As he has previously stated, in return he would like a defender, a midfielder and a striker, with those three players being Chelsea’s Ricardo Carvalho and Deco, as well as Barcelona’s Samuel Eto’o.

‘Ibra’ was an influential figure yet again in Inter's Scudetto victory this term, as he topped the scoring charts in Serie A with 25 goals to his name.

The negotiations will continue over the coming 24 hours, with a successful resolution expected.
