English clubs preparing to move for Milan duo

The Italian giants are reported to be trying to offload players, including Klass-Jan Huntelaar and Mathieu Flamini, to raise the necessary funds for a £40 million bid for Barcelona forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The striker, who scored the winner for Holland in their final World Cup Group E match against Cameroon last week, has attracted the attention of Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger and Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson in the past, but Spanish newspaper Sport suggest he may now be heading to Tottenham for around £11.5 million.

His impressive performances during his time at Emirates Stadium are likely to see a host of Premier League sides interested in his signature, despite the Frenchman failing to make an impact in Serie A. 

It has also been suggested that the Rossoneri may be prepared to cash in on either Ronaldinho or Alexandre Pato, news which will alert Chelsea, who have been heavily linked with the latter since Carlo Ancelotti took over at Stamford Bridge last summer.
