‘We’re having conversations’ -Man United boss confirms talks with 28-goal striker

Manchester United are in talks with Zlatan Ibrahimovic over the striker signing a new deal.

United manager Jose Mourinho confirmed ‘conversations’ are ongoing with the experienced striker.

Mourinho was quoted by the Mirror as saying: “You know he’s injured, he needs time to recover, he’s not ready to play.

“It’s not something urgent, that we are desperate to have it done or not done, I just think that he was very clear by showing what he did last year was not enough for him.

“He thinks he can do more and wants more at the highest level, so we’re having conversations and we’re discussing the possibility of him to stay with us for the second part of the season.”
