Ibrahimovich Considering Chelsea Offer

Posted on July 12th, 2009 by Chelsea D

Reports are suggesting today Chelsea have made a bid of £60million for Zlatan Ibrahimovich.

A couple of questions spring to mind here, firstly, is this the ‘quality signing’ they hope will persuade John Terry to stay at the club or are they planning to fund the transfer off the back of John Terry’s departure?

Ibrahimovic naturally isn’t worried about where the money’s coming from and says “I am fully aware that Chelsea want to sign me and, of course, it is very flattering. They are one of the biggest teams in Europe and the Premier League is one of the best leagues in the world. Money is not the most important thing. I will base my decision on what’s good for me, what suits me.  It is about asking: will I still be able to be special in the league that I am going to, the team I am going to? Are my qualities right for the Premier League or not?”

I’m glad to hear he’s at least considering whether he’d be any good in the Premier League for that sort of money because he wouldn’t be the first big money signing from Serie A to fail in a better league.

    They sould go young, if they go old they should go for Eto not Ibra. Think he would be better and cheaper

    Why buy Ibra? Why? We already have the Drog, Nicolas, Sheva, De Santo and now Sturridge – give the youngsters a chance – Alfredo has enormous potential – and if Ibra has to come then one or two of the above should go!

    I was thinking and i think we have enough young squad and we just need one more superb singing and to sell two or three older players.

    Have to say, if we’re going to spend £50-60 on a player I’d rather it wasn’t Ibrahimovich. Yes, I’ve only seen him play the odd game in the Champions League, but I don’t think he offers something different from what we already have. We need a creative player – someone who can create a goal from nowhere when we’re strugging to break opposition down. Someone with spark…

    On that basis, I’d rather we went for Aguero or Pato.

    Zlatan Ibrahimovic IMO is the better version of Didier Drogba, stronger, better in the air, better vision, very creative and wont let his temper get the better of him, with Nicholas Anelka playing just behind running defenders with his pace to create space for Ibrahimovic i believe he’ll be a huge hit for Chelsea and the Premier League, Roman he is your marquee player. Sign Him Up!!
