Manchester United Manager, Jose Mourinho has hinted that plans were underway to extend the contract of Zlatan Ibrahmovic by an additional year.


The "Special One" who gave the hint in a chat with ESPN said;


“It’s not something urgent, that we are desperate to have it done or not done, I just think that he was very clear by showing what he did last year was not enough for him. He thinks he can do more and wants more at the highest level so we are having conversations and we are discussing the possibility of him to stay with us for the second part of the season.”


Ibra picked a season-ending injury during a EuroPA Cup encounter against Anderlect. He suffered serious ligament damage in his right knee and has since been recuperating.


The Manager also disclosed that the Club was still exploring the possibility of bringing an additional player to strengthen the club.


“25% means one of four, and we got a central defender that can play in many other positions, which is important. Victor can play right back and can play central midfielder, we got a central midfielder, we got a striker, obviously the 25% would be a player for another position playing from the sides. But we have players and if we cannot strengthen the team in these areas we have people we can trust and go for it.”
