Agent plays down Ibra rumours

The Italian manager revealed his interest in the striker on Wednesday, fuelling rumours the 29-year-old could make the move to Eastlands in the summer. But Ibrahimovic, currently on loan at Serie A champions Milan from Barcelona, has said he wants to stay at the San Siro. And his agent, Mino Raiola, insists the Swede has unfinished business with the Rossoneri as he looks to help them to European success next season. "Mancini has done a great compliment to Zlatan saying he might make the final leap to Manchester City," Raiola told Radio Radio. "But he must not speak with me but with (Milan chief Adriano) Galliani and it won't be easy to take him away. "Mancini knows what it means to have Ibra in a group but I think it's impossible that Milan sell him. "When Zlatan went to AC Milan I said they were getting not just a player but also a winning mentality. "Ibrahimovic doesn't like to lose and he has brought that mentality to AC Milan. "In football everything has a price, but Ibra is not going to go away. "He wants to grow with Milan. They will have a team to compete in Europe."
