Real Madrid boss Mourinho driving deal for Barcelona reject Ibrahimovic

Jose Mourinho wants to bring Zlatan Ibrahimovic to Real Madrid. El Mundo Deportivo says the Real coach is driving the deal and is desperate to sign the AC Milan striker this summer.

Mourinho is convinced Ibra is the centre-forward who can bring out the best in his playing system - just as Didier Drogba did with Chelsea.

The stumbling block is Kaka, as Mourinho wants to swap the Brazilian for Ibra. However, the midfielder has other offers and his camp would prefer he move to England if he must leave Madrid.

Chelsea and Manchester City are interested in the former Milan ace.
