Football: Ibra no closer to PSG deal, says agent

ROME: AC Milan’s striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic is still a long way off reaching an agreement for a move to Paris Saint Germain (PSG), said his agent. “In Italy, you invent stories,” said his agent Mindo Raiola. “We are very far from an agreement.” Silva’s agent Paulo Tonietto has also insisted he has not been contacted by PSG. AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi has however said that that the players have been sold to PSG. “Yes, I’ve sold Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva to PSG,” said Berlusconi to Sky Sport 24. “We will save €150 million over two years.”
