LA Galaxy are edging closer to signing Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic according to ESPN FC.
Per the source, the MLS giants were nearing a deal before but Ibrahimovic’s knee injury lead to a breakdown in talks.
Ibrahimovic recovered from injury quicker than expected but has found playing time hard to come by this season.
The powerful striker has one goal in seven appearances for the Red Devils in all competitions this season.
The 36-year-old is likely to fall further down the pecking order following the recent signing of Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal.
The Sanchez transfer has given La Galaxy a boost in their bid to land the forward.
