Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho is confident Zlatan Ibrahimovic will stay with the Serie A team because no club will be willing to fork out the huge sums needed to buy the Swedish forward.

"I don't expect there to be an offer for Ibra in the summer because everyone knows an offer of 40, 50 or 60 million euros would be rejected immediately," said Mourinho.

"No one will be able to make an offer of 100 million (£88m) I'm absolutely certain no offers will arrive because clubs don't make stupid offers. They don't make stupidly low offers and a stupidly high one won't arrive."
