MLS commissioner Don Graber has claimed Zlatan Ibrahimovic could be signed for AC Milan.
Swedish superstar Ibrahimovic departed LA Galaxy at the end of the most recent MLS campaign, ending an 18-month spell in the United States.
Graber told ESPN: "Zlatan is an interesting character. He keeps me very busy & you need this kind of players like what happened with Beckham few years ago.
"He is 38 years old and now is being recruited by Milan, one of the biggest clubs in the world."
A-League side Perth Glory were also reported to have launched an ambitious bid to sign the superstar on a short term deal.
But a move back to Italy has appeared most likely, with Napoli also said to be keen.
