RedBird Capital advisor Zlatan Ibrahimovic spoke at Monday's press conference to present Paulo Fonseca as the team's new coach. Asked about the transfer market, the former player admitted that "there is someone in our sights". A few hours earlier, the Italian press mentioned the possibility of signing Alvaro Morata from Atletico.

AC Milan have "in mind" the signing of a forward, the club's former player Zlatan Ibrahimovic said on Monday amid rumours of the club's interest in Alvaro Morata.

"We are not in a hurry. The market is long. I can guarantee that new signings will come. We are talking, discussing. There is nothing done. (The signing of Dutchman Joshua) Zirkee has passed, we have one in mind, but I'm not saying the name. There is someone in our sights," Ibrahimovic told reporters.

The Milan legend explained that "to bring in players, you also have to create space". "We don't want to have a squad of 30 players, but 23. New signings will come in, but you also have to create space so you don't have too many players who are not functional for the coach.

"We have to think not only about who comes in, but also about who goes out," he added.
