Zlatan Ibrahimovic in advanced talks with Everton

Off contract LA Galaxy striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic is in talks with Everton.

Tuttosport says despite being 38 years old, Ibrahimovic was closing in on return to AC Milan but he has turned down their £1.7million, 18-month offer.

The ex-Real Madrid and Manchester United forward is claimed to be holding out for double what the Italian giants put on the table.

Ibrahimovic is closing in on a return to the Premier League, almost two years after leaving Old Trafford.

And Everton could be about to pull off a major coup to capture the 11-time Ballon d'Or nominee.

Three-time Champions League winning manager Carlo Ancelotti is set to take over at Goodison Park after flying into London to meet with club chiefs yesterday.

He could be reunited with Ibrahimovic, who he managed while boss of French side Paris-Saint Germain.
