Agent blasts AC Milan loan talk for Barcelona striker Ibrahimovic

The agent of Zlatan Ibrahimovic has again cast doubt on the Barcelona striker's move to AC Milan.

Mino Raiola insists his client will not be going to Milan in any loan deal.

"If Milan come to Barcelona for Zlatan, it does not mean we have said yes to Milan," agent Raiola told Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet.

"Ibrahimovic has a four-year contract and should stay, because Barcelona are a fantastic club. If someone convinces us that it's best for him to move, then yes, we'll move.

"But the proposal has to be a really good one and so far I haven't heard anything good enough."

Raiola was above all dismissive of the reports Ibra would be willing to lower his pay demands.

"He certainly won't reduce his wages. You cannot go into a Rolls Royce dealership and then suddenly realise you don't have the necessary money.

"A loan? That's impossible. It would be an insult. When you leave a side like Barcelona, you do it forever."
