Anyone else slightly surprised that we're seemingly not in the running for him? I recognise the José connection, but I'd have thought the prospect of one final year in the Champions League would be a more attractive prospect wouldn't it? Just a bit surprised we've not shown more interest (as it apparently appears) especially given he's available on a free.

If we can pay Walcott 140k a week, we can give Ibrahimovic a million pounds a week.
The wage isn't the issue, I think Wenger would just prefer not to handle a character like Ibrahimovic.

Wenger wouldn't sign him even if he was willing to accept 10k a week.
For many reasons, he's just not the character Wenger will work with

He's not worth 300k a week if utd are thick enough to pay him that then more fool them

300k a week sounds bad but it's not that awful when you consider there's no transfer fee.
Equate it to a 8m loan fee and 140k a week wages for a year of Zlatan to me seems like a good deal, even just for him football wise.
What he'd bring in terms of shirt sales, morale and sponsorship benefits is another matter

GT would start supporting Bayern.

Plus £10M of signing on and agent fees probably

Where do you get £300k from? I think you've just made it up.
It was widely reported a couple of months ago that he wants £600k a week. I've done a google search on £300k and £600k and nothing for £300k, but here are the results for £600k.

I doubt anyone would pay him 600k/week, not even American, Chinese or Arabic club for that instance. I would be really surprised he would get anything more than 350-400k/week. Imagine Utd signs him up for 300+k/week and he feks up
