Is it finally happening? After years of rumors, could the 36-year-old Sweden superstar be heading stateside to join the LA Galaxy?
After Taylor Twellman originally revealed the news ahead of the USA Bosnia-Herzegovina telecast, multiple sources including ESPN’s Jeff Carlisle are now reporting a deal is near. (But not complete, don’t go popping champagne bottles just yet)
Sources have also said that Ibrahimovic, if he does indeed make the move, will be signed with the help of Targeted Allocation Money, meaning he will not take up a Designated Player spot. It’s unclear at this point if sponsors or other sources are kicking in money to augment Ibrahimovic’s salary.
