AC Milan want to sign Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko this summer - and will offer Sweden star Zlatan Ibrahimovic in exchange, according to reports in Italy.
It has been suggested that the Serie A leaders have identified Dzeko as their main transfer target but know City are unlikely to sell him, having forked out £27m for him less than four months ago.
But in order to tempt City into selling the Bosnia international, Milan will offer 29-year-old Ibrahimovic, who has scored 14 Serie A goals this season, in exchange.
Manager Roberto Mancini is understood to be a fan of the Sweden international, who he managed during his time in charge at Inter Milan.
And reports in Italy have indicated that the opportunity to sign Ibrahimovic, coupled with Dzeko's disappointing form, might be enough to persuade Mancini into doing the deal this summer.
The 25-year-old has failed to notch in nine Premier League outings at his new club, and has scored just four goals in his first 15 appearances in all competitions.

I believe that this would be a good move for Dzeko, Milan has a more creative midfield then Manchester City.......
