Zlatan Ibrahimovic has agreed personal terms with Manchester United according to The Guardian. Discussions with Mourinho remain about the Swede’s role in the squad. Zlatan is looking for assurances that he will be a key player in the next season.
Of course as Zlatan is a marquee singing, Man United fans were overjoyed when they heard the news.

Haven’t felt a signing to be of such importance since when van Persie signed for Man Utd. Zlatan has that aura around him; a serial winner.

Don't know a great deal about Eric Bailly but early signs are promising re getting business done. Zlatan and a defender close to completion.

Anyone comparing the Schweinsteiger signing to Zlatan will be blocked and reported.

It remains to be seen how big an impact Zlatan will have on the Premier League. Manchester United after Sir Alex left have made some poor ‘big-name’ signings. Both Falcao and Bastian Schweinsteiger were well past their prime when United bought them. Angel Di Maria simply failed to settle in at Old Trafford. United fans will hope that Zlatan will succeed but another worry is that a 34-year old will be blocking Marcus Rashford’s rise to the top. Mourinho’s distrust in youth is already a major worry among the United supporters and Zlatan’s signing will only reinforce that belief.

ibra is bound to be a hit, martial to his left n rashford to his right, rooney behind.
Remember Falcao 😀
course i do, what of it ?
Well it’s just that fans got there hopes up about other players in the past that came with a big nae and retribution and they didn’t fair too well. I’m sure Ibra will be different and I’ve still hope for Schwienstiger if he gets back to fitness. All this talk as though Ibra is a done deal and he’s definitely heading to United seems a little naive though. There’s a high possibility that he will head elsewhere and nobody has mentioned Bayern. Lewandowski is mooted to be heading to Madrid so they’ll be in the market for a top quality forward. They’ve CL on offer (the one trophy that’s eluded Ibra) they’d be able to pay his wages. He really admires Ancelloti and has worked with him previously. Oh and he hasn’t played in the Bundesleague.
your right he may well not come to united but if he does he will be a great success he comes injury free, is much stronger than all the other rubbish signed by van gaal and for once hes a player in top form ,again unlike the other over the top injury prone has beens.
