Inter Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic would welcome a move to European champions Barcelona, according to his agent.
Reports have been rife that the two clubs are discussing a deal after Inter president Massimo Moratti was spotted meeting Barca counterpart Joan Laporta in a hotel in Spain.
"I only know that if the two clubs find an agreement we would not have trouble agreeing with Barcelona," agent Mino Raiola told reporters.
Spanish daily Marca are reporting that Ibrahimovic could cost the Catalan club £60m, while Italy's Gazzetta dello Sport claim Inter want Barca striker Samuel Eto'o and a £30m transfer fee in return for their star player.
Ibrahimovic, who finished the season as Serie A's top scorer, has previously stated that he has "won everything in Italy" and hinted that it was time to move on to a new challenge.
"I don't know what else I can still do in Italy," Ibrahimovic told Sky Italia earlier this week. "When I arrived here many criticised me, saying I was a fantastic player, but I couldn't score goals.
"Now I have won the Capocannoniere (top scorer) title and proved myself. I could not have done any better than this. I have won five Scudetti (league titles), the Super Cup, I'm missing the Coppa Italia, but that's okay."
If Ibrahimovic were to leave for Spain, it would be another huge blow to Italy's top flight with AC Milan's Kaka also on the brink of signing for Real Madrid.
