FC Paris Saint-Germain sign striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Big spending French side FC Paris Saint-Germain have signed Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic from Italian giants AC Milan for a transfer fee of 20 Million Euros and unveiled him in Paris at a press conference today. Ibrahimovic is set to get 14 Million Euros as salary per season.

At the press conference at Parc des Princes Ibrahimovic said, "I want to thank Paris Saint-Germain and (sporting director) Leonardo for the great work they've done!"

"I think they've made something that looked impossible, possible. I'm very happy to be sitting here. After lots of talks, I'm finally a PSG player. It's a big step in my career, another dream come true. I think this is a very interesting project and I had no doubts. In my mind I was very clear, and I knew what I wanted.

"They're bringing together the very best. Who wouldn't want to be here?" Ibrahimovic added.

30 year old Zlatan Ibrahimovic is someone who has won league titles in three different countries having played for FF Malmö, Ajax Amsterdam, Juventus Torino, Inter Milan, FC Barcelona and AC Milan.

Ibrahimovic is the fourth signing by PSG from the Italian Serie A after Argentinian Ezequiel Lavezzi from SSC Napoli for 26 Million Euros, former AC Milan team mate Thiago Silva for 42 Million Euros and young Italian Marco Verratti for 12 Million Euros from AC Pescara.

In total these four signings have cost PSG already 100 Million Euros, but with the financial backing of their investors from Qatar Sports Investment more signings look possible as they will want to challenge the best and strongest clubs in Europe. After spending more then 100 Million Euros over the last season and now again the Qatari owners will want titles from coach Carlo Ancelotti and his team.
