Manchester City are reportedly poised to swoop for Paris Saint-Germain striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic amid reports that he has fallen out with new manager Laurent Blanc.
The 31-year-old joined Les Parisiens in a big-money move from AC Milan last summer and scored 30 goals in his debut season to finish as top scorer in Ligue 1.
However, The Mirror reports that he could be heading for the door after failing to return a call from Blanc, who was appointed as Carlo Ancelotti's successor just 18 days ago.
Ibrahimovic has been given an extra 10 days off before starting pre-season training, but reports suggest that he may not to turn up at the club's Camp des Loges training centre next Thursday.
He is believed to be unhappy at the potential arrival of Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani from Napoli.
The news is thought to have caught the attention of new Citizens boss Manuel Pellegrini, who is keen to replace Carlos Tevez following his move to Italian champions Juventus.
