The word is that Zlatan Ibrahimovic will be on a plane to Manchester as soon as Sweden are out of the Euros.

According to reports, the 34-year-old is on Jose Mourinho's wishlist ahead of his first season at Old Trafford. With the stories refusing to die away, United fans have been keeping a keen eye on Zlatan's performances at Euro 2016. Against Ireland, he spent the majority of his time lurking in the depths of Glenn Whelan's pocket. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/743227598315085824 But with the Swedes trailing by a goal, Zlatan's run into the area and cross-cum-shot was enough to force an own goal from Ciaran Clarke. Not all that impressive, but he was just warming up, wasn't he? He'd be much better in the next match, right? Wrong. Against Italy in Toulouse, Zlatan was yet again uncharacteristically anonymous. Those United supporters watching it weren't all that impressed.... https://twitter.com/bradharringtonn/status/743807917493739520 https://twitter.com/bigcee75/status/743804467204726784 https://twitter.com/MatthewGrif18/status/743803966639702017 https://twitter.com/floydianechoes/status/743797143144652800 https://twitter.com/ochocinco/status/742762928307372033

Supporters of rivals clubs seem pretty happy about it all though.

That said, his weekly wages will more than likely be enough to keep the United faithful up at night. Especially if he continues his Euro 2016 form in England. SNAPCHAT
