French Ligue 1 winners PSG, 12/1 Champions League chances with Coral, have told star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic he can leave the Parc des Princes for a cut-price fee, alerting AC Milan, Arsenal and Manchester United, according to today’s tabloids.

Now 33, the Sweden superstar has symbolised the Parisian club’s rise to prominence with a prolific scoring record during three seasons there.
