Last summer, Paris Saint-Germain forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic asked to move to Real Madrid, but received a negative response. It is reported that the Swedish player, who will soon celebrate his 32nd birthday, was even willing to lower his salary - asking for "only" 10 million euros per season instead of his current 14 million euros. According to the press, not even the club president or coach Carlo Ancelotti were moved by the request, as they wanted to strengthen the attack further. The main reason for Real Madrid's leaders giving a negative response was the player's age being considered too advanced. Last season, Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored 35 goals and provided 11 assists in 46 matches played.
