Report: Milan accept PSG bids for Zlatan and Thiago

AC Milan have accepted a bid from Paris St-Germain for both Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva according to a report in Italy.

On Wednesday morning, French daily L'Equipe said that PSG were planning to bid for the pair. Then later on Wednesday evening, Italian sports channel Sky Sport 24 reported that the bid – believed to €65 million (£51.3m) - had been accepted.

Ibrahimovic's agent Mino Raiola, is thought to have had a four hour meeting with Milan vice president Adriano Galliani about the potential transfer.

Raiola is now said to have flown to Sweden to talk over the deal with Ibrahimovic.

Swedish international Ibrahimovic, now 30, has a contract with AC Milan until the summer of 2015, while 27-year-old Brazil international defender Thiago Silva only extended his contract until 2017 this summer.

Milan are undergoing a rebuilding project this summer, having finished second to Juventus in Serie A.

They have already signed Riccardo Montolivo from Fiorentina and Bakaye Traore from Nice, with veterans Alessandro Nesta, Mark van Bommel, Gianluca Zambrotta, Filippo Inzaghi, Clarence Seedorf and Gennaro Gattuso all exiting the San Siro.

PSG, were bought by ambitious Qatari investors last May and have already shelled out tens of millions of euros on new signings.

This summer they have already announced the signing of Napoli forward Ezequiel Lavezzi for a reported 30 million euros.

That's a major deal if it went through. PSG are going to be a force to be considered even if they don't sign anyone anymore.

PSG close to Ibra/Thiago mega deal

Paris Saint Germain sporting director Leonardo has confirmed that negotiations are under way with AC Milan over a deal for both Thiago Silva and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, with the total cost reported at €62 million.

Thiago Silva, 27, came close to joining the Paris-based side in June, but were turned away by Milan president Silvio Berlusconi. Now, with the prospect of an additional fee for striker Ibrahimovic, 30, it seems that the two parties have struck a deal.

Ibrahimovic's agent, Mino Raiola, met with AC Milan CEO Adriano Galliani for four hours on Wednesday, when it is believed the fee was agreed. Raiola subsequently flew to Sweden to meet the striker, where he was joined by PSG official Leonardo. The duo, along with lawyer Vittorio Rigo, have since returned to Paris for further talks.

Leonardo told Gazzetta dello Sport: "Yes, negotiations are underway and we have spoken in Sweden. At the moment everything is possible, because the transfer marker is like this, it is always open.

"Soon we meet with Mino Raiola, and see what can be done. This business can only be considered closed when things are finalised."

Ibrahimovic is believed to be willing to move for an increase on his €12 million annual salary, while Thiago Silva struck terms with PSG over a €7.5 million-a-year contract in mid-June.
