Ibrahimovic on his way to Europe

The official website of Inter Milan announces that Inter Milan forward and Swedish international Zlatan Ibrahimovic (27) has left the club's training camp in the United States.

Ibrahimovic has been given the permission by his club to return to Europe because of the transfer operation he's involved in. After saying goodbye to Inter Milan manager José Mourinho and his team-mates, he left the hotel in Boston and will now fly to Sweden.

Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti meanwhile told his club's official website that the whole transfer operation is not yet concluded: "The deal has almost been completed, so let's wait before we comment. I repeat what I said this morning: I like everyone's interviews, but I prefer to wait until it's official. I don't know when that will be. Hopefully today. When it arrives, it arrives, but it's not as if it's a race against time."

Why the coach isn't commenting on the events? Mourinho clearly made it understood that he didn't think Ibrahimovic could go to another team, but he admires Eto'o so much that he was satisfied and very pleased with this possibility, with this swap. Is Hleb part of the deal? Yes."
