Reports emerge saying that Ibrahimovic to United is officially a done deal

Reports are emerging that Zlatan Ibrahimovic has officially signed for Manchester United.

The Swedish striker has been linked with the club for a number of weeks following his decision to leave PSG at the end of the season, and the Red Devils appeared to be the front runners for his signature. 

Currently preparing for Sweden's Euro 2016 campaign, where they will compete in Group E against Ireland, it is thought that a deal would be struck before the tournament begins. 

It appears that that has now happened, with beIN Sports correspondent Tancredi Palmeri taking to Twitter break the news. 

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Ibrahimovic has signed for Manchester United</p>&mdash; Tancredi Palmeri (@tancredipalmeri) <a href="https://twitter.com/tancredipalmeri/status/739516229807935488">June 5, 2016</a></blockquote>
