Zlatan Ibrahimovic has not sealed his move to Barcelona from Inter, but he has started fantasizing about playing with Lionel Messi.

There was speculation that Ibrahimovic had lost his passion for the game with Inter under Jose Mourinho, but the Swedish striker has dismissed such a notion.

However, the press all over Europe is reporting that Ibrahimovic wants to move to the Nou Camp to start playing free-flowing attacking football.

"Barca is an opportunity of a lifetime," Sport quoted the player telling his buddies. "It's a dream to play alongside Leo Messi. I will run amok with Messi next to me."

Mourinho in turn has hailed Messi, but maintains that Ibrahimovic is the best.

"When I think of what a good player is like, I'm reminded of players like Kaka, Ibrahimovic and Messi, a phenomenon who will one day win the Ballon d'Or," Sport reported him saying.

"But for me, Ibra is the best of them all. Zlatan immerses himself in football, he has plenty of heart and he's emotionally aggressive. He has all the characteristics to win the Ballon d'Or. He will surely win it."
