But Real look set to demand over £60million for the Spain striker (below) who wants more firstteam action, because of the Reds’ refusal to sell them keeper David De Gea. Real wanted to take De Gea back to Madrid this summer, but United have insisted their No.1 is not for sale. The Reds officially released striker Zlatan Ibrahimovi­c yesterday. The 35-year-old Swedish superstar joined United on a 12-month contract and scored 28 goals in 46 appearance­s, before sustaining a serious knee injury in April.
