Barcelona and Internazionale are close to sealing a swap deal involving strikers Samuel Eto'o and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, according to Barca president Joan Laporta.

The deal will also see Belarus winger Alex Hleb head to the San Siro on a season-long loan, although Laporta also admitted that nothing is certain just yet.

He told his club's official website: "We are in total agreement with Inter, but the talks are not over yet, as we need to consent of the players.

"We do have a tentative deal for Ibrahimovic, but it would be early to say which of the two is best - Ibra or David Villa. In the end we will consider the best option for Barca."

Inter ace Ibrahimovic himself added: "If the offer from Barcelona is real, then this gets interesting. I will wait and see what happens."
