Although, the odds of Ashley Young ending up at Liverpool are 5/2, only second to Villa's 11/10.

Sport.es is reporting that Barcelona have acquired Zlatan Ibrahimovic for Samuel Eto'o, Alexander Hleb and 40 million euros.

Bye bye David Villa.

Overpayment, but he'll be a perfect compliment to Messi and Henry.

Oh noes! Not Hleb!!!!!!!!!!@!$!@$!@!

I'll miss Eto'o. Greatly. But Barca gets one of the best strikers in the world.

I can't wait for Aug 1!!

Ibra is the better option between the two.

Grossly overpaid by Barca, if true.

Mr I do you think this was a better deal than just paying for Villa and transferring the other two on seperate deals? I am supprised by this move.

**redxalonso** · July 17th, 2009, 05:13 AM

This move hasn't been confirmed.

**redxalonso** · July 17th, 2009, 07:55 AM

Foxsports is now reporting the deal is being worked on.

**ASUcruz** · July 17th, 2009, 09:18 AM

If Zlatan can't make a mark in the Champions League with Barca then he never will.

BBC SPORT | Football | Europe | Barca & Inter agree striker swap

BBC are saying this is a deal. I think this is poor for Barca, how does a player of Etoo's stature who has actually performed and won the Champions league be so completely undervalued against a guy who is not very consistent in big matches.
