Ibra eyes Juve extension Tuesday 18 October, 2005
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juventus star Zlatan Ibrahimovic has confirmed he is in talks with the club over a new contract.
The Swedish international still has three years to run on his present deal, but he is being tipped to extend that agreement until 2010.
"I am happy in Turin and it is obvious that I want to continue my career with this club," stated the striker.
"The longer I can extend my contract, the happier I’ll be. My aim is to stay here for as long as possible.
"The negotiations are currently in the hands of my agent."
Mino Raiola, his representative, has already held initial talks with the Bianconeri regarding new terms.
Both parties are keen to continue in their adventure together after the 23-year-old’s success at the Delle Alpi so far.
Ibrahimovic, despite his questionable scoring record, has been a massive hit with the Old Lady.
The former Malmo ace, last year linked with a move to Real Madrid, joined Juventus from Ajax in 2004 for £11.5m.
Ibrahimovic will next be in action this evening, when his side take on Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
