Mino Raiola reveals Zlatan Ibrahimovic “has always been in love with” Napoli and won’t rule out a Mario Balotelli move either.
The agent spoke to Radio Crc today and was asked about the possibility of the pair, both represented by Raiola, wearing the Napoli jersey.
“Mario is fine at Nice because he wants to show the world that he’s become a calm person, he just wants to work and that’s what he’s doing.
Mino Raiola reveals Zlatan Ibrahimovic “has always been in love with” Napoli and won’t rule out a Mario Balotelli move either.
The agent spoke to Radio Crc today and was asked about the possibility of the pair, both represented by Raiola, wearing the Napoli jersey.
“Mario is fine at Nice because he wants to show the world that he’s become a calm person, he just wants to work and that’s what he’s doing.
“There are a lot of teams who asked for him, from China to northern Europe, but we’ve said we’ll wait a few months to decide Balotelli’s future.
“We don’t rule anything out, neither Napoli nor other clubs, we’ll see what happens in the summer.”
Balotelli has been linked with Napoli more than once, partly because his daughter Pia lives in the city.
“As for Ibrahimovic, he’s always been in love with Naples and the passion of the Neapolitans and I’ve always said that openly because he grew up in a family which was similar to the Neapolitans and then with me.
“He knows what the love of the Neapolitans means and that passion has always attracted him.
“I know that [President Aurelio] De Laurentiis knows him, and with Zlatan you never know what could happen.”
Ibrahimovic joined Manchester United as a free agent this summer when his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expired.
The 35-year-old Swede has scored 19 goals with six assists in 31 competitive games for Jose Mourinho’s side.
