Barca will pay about £35m, plus 28-year-old Eto'o, in return for Ibrahimovic, 27.

What do people think?

I don't get this deal. I like Eto but have never rated Ibrahimovic that highly. Other than Eto being in the last year of his contract, why do Inter get £35m?

Has Eto agreed to this deal?

I find it a very strange deal for him to agree too - he is out of contract at the end of this season n a player well known wanting a huge wages increase.

It seems Eto is dragging his feet on the deal, so I am not sure of the staus of the deal.

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola feels it would be best for the club if Samuel Eto'o leaves the Nou Camp.

I can't see Eto staying at Barcelona now.
