New rumors about Zlatan's future

.
Newspaper: "Barcelona is working on a solution"
On Tuesday, Zlatan Ibrahimovic tried to kill all the rumors surrounding his future in Spain.
- I will stay in Barcelona, "said Ibrahimovic.
Today, however, argues El Mundo Deportivo and Sport, the two major sports newspapers in Barcelona, that Barça are working to change or sell the Swede.
It was at a press conference prior to Sweden's international against Scotland training as Zlatan Ibrahimovic said that he does very well in Barcelona, which he described as the world's best football teams, and that he, despite all the rumors will stop.
Today, the day after Zlatan inspiring and success-like comeback in the national team, beat the two major newspapers down in Barcelona, El Mundo Deportivo and Sport, on the great reputation of the drum again.
City and Milan is mentioned as hottest clubs
El Mundo Deportivo writes that Barça are worried about Zlatan possible reactions if he is forced to wear a bench for a long time in the club and that the new president, Sandro Rosell, will meet AC Milan vice president Adriano Galliani to discuss things in the Joan Gamper match between the law at the Camp Nou on 25 August.
Sports magazine speculates that no team will be willing to pay Barcelona as much money as the recruitment of Zlatan Ibrahimovic will not be a great loss.
Want to replace Robinho
The magazine has instead found a solution in the Manchester City Brass Robinho, formerly of Real Madrid. According to the newspaper and Zlatan Robinho would be able to get two washers in a barter trade between the clubs.
According to Sports Barça president Rosell already have been in contact with Robinho coming men and representatives of Manchester City.
In the evening back together again in Barcelona to prepare for the Super Cup final against Sevilla on Saturday - a match that Zlatan Ibrahimovic will be playing.
The question is whether he may once again start on the bench.
 
Balotelli can play on the wings too.

Probably means bye-bye Adebayor if anything.
 
No problem keeping 4 strikers happy. If we want to be top team that's the way it'e got to be.

The original source for this is Sport.es, which carries a lot of Barca leaks, not French radio, which just copied it.

Ibrahimovic is available because firstly he doesn't really 'fit in' in the Catalan environment/closed shop - much like Yaya Touré was left out in favour of Catalan Busquets. Although he scored a fair few, he was heavily - and unfairly - criticised for the ones he missed, more and more as the season progressed.

The second reason is the signing of David Villa.

The third reason is the astronomical cost both of his wages (€250K pw) + the remainder of his fee to Inter - dont forget Barca are now skint and according to Rosell this sort of transfer is 'not sustainable'. Using Robinho in this deal would create a situation where Barca would not make a loss on Ibra.

Against this is the fact that the player himself is in some sort of financial comfort zone which City would have to match, tax liabilities and all. Why should the player leave this and would City want to match it?

Sport.es says Rosell, Cook (who he knows fom Nike) and the 2 players' reps are in talks.

This. When people say this will be a problem I always (reluctantly) use the example of Cole, Yorke, Sheringham and Solskjaer. Tevez, Adebayor, Balotelli and Ibrahimovic looks sensational, especially given Tevez can play deeper and Super Mario can play out wide.

The difference is that they played 4-4-2, with two strikers. We often play only with one striker. Tevez might drift outside as supporting striker but then he's competing with the likes of Silva and Robinho.

Solskjaer was also ok with being on the bench, I doubt Ibra, Tevez and Adebayor are.
