Man Utd favourites to sign Ibrahimovic

Manchester United are reportedly considered front-runners to sign Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is available on a free transfer this summer. The 34-year-old has decided to ply his trade in the Premier League once his contract expires at Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season.

Ibrahimovic's future has been the topic of speculation in recent weeks with the likes of West Ham United and Arsenal linked with potential moves for his signature.

However, The Telegraph understands that the Swede is eager to earn a contract with the Red Devils even if they fail to qualify for next season's Champions League.

The player is said to have come to this decision following reports that Jose Mourinho could take over the managerial reigns at Old Trafford in the summer.

Ibrahimovic has been in rich vein in form for Les Parisiens this season netting 46 goals in all competitions.
