Manchester United will announce Zlatan Ibrahimovic as their new signing on July 1, according to Italian transfer journalist Gianluca Di Marzio.
The recently retired Sweden international, aged 34, has long been linked with a move to Old Trafford on a free transfer. The deal will now be completed this Friday, the report claims.
Ibrahimovic’s Paris Saint-Germain contract expires this Thursday, June 30. United are set to act to sign him as soon as he becomes a free agent.
After Sweden’s Euro 2016 exit last week, the former Barcelona, AC Milan and Inter Milan forward reportedly travelled to Monte Carlo to meet agent Mino Raiola to finalise the final details of his move to United.
Ibrahimovic is set to become the second signing of new United boss Jose Mourinho’s tenure at Old Trafford. His arrival will follow that of former Villarreal defender Eric Bailly, who completed his switch to the Red Devils earlier this month
