VectisSaint Posted 4 May, 2016 Share Posted 4 May, 2016 It's fairly common knowledge that Zlatan wants one season in the Premier League before moving to the MLS. He will go to a club that plays in the Champions League and can realistically win the league, not for the team in 7th spot and potential Europa League qualifiers in Kazakhstan. Will be odd seeing him playing alongside Vardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should go to Leicester then, just for sh!ts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 4 May, 2016 Share Posted 4 May, 2016 If it were true (which it ain't) it'd be like Osvaldo all over again except it would bankrupt us and put is into the Conference South, no thanks! Without actually wishing to entertain this rumour, a 1 year deal on £300kpw would 'only' set us back £15m. Beefed up a bit by agents fees, signing on etc. but it wouldn't come close to bankrupting us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golac's Iron Gonads Posted 4 May, 2016 Share Posted 4 May, 2016 I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I wouldn't want him here. Bad influence on the team despite his talent. Especially after just witnessing a team more than the sum of it's parts win the title. The thought of seeing Ibrahimovic strutting around demanding to take every free kick, posturing when he doesn't get a pass, celebrating his goals chest out running away from his team mates. Tosser, would rather watch Long week in week out than that man-bunned creep.

Saint86 Posted 4 May, 2016 Share Posted 4 May, 2016 If I am right I am bagging ITK status, life time membership. I have been told by someone close to the Italian media and a Juventus s/t holder that Zlatan Ibrahimović has agreed a summer move to Southampton - on the basis of his exceptional relationship with Ronald at Ajax. Wage structure to be demolished in line with new TV revenue. If I am wrong hey who cares I loved hearing it.

Even though we have zero chance of signing him, he would be an immense signing. You can afford to posture when you have scored 298 league goals in 481 games for clubs like Barca, Juve, AC & Inter Milan. He is still one of the Worlds Star Players - never blessed with huge pace so getting a bit older and slowing down hasn't done him much harm. Would be a massive upgrade on Pelle. Financially 15m-20m a year in wages etc - again now a drop in the ocean for us with the TV deal, especially with all the extra exposure around the world it would give us. But again, won't come here in a million years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Wolf Posted 5 May, 2016 Share Posted 5 May, 2016 How many houses did he buy in Winchester in the end? That rumour cropped up about 3 years in a row!!

Mowgli Posted 5 May, 2016 Share Posted 5 May, 2016 The funniest thing will be that 50% of those posting are gonna look right embarrased when it either happens or does not happen. Friendships can often overcome any number of issues such as wages etc so I'm not ruling it out but would be as surprised as the Keegan signing if it does come off. Like others have sensibly said, the biggest concern is whether he would actually help or hinder dressing room harmony. Most clubs can handle (and possibly need) one massive ego.
