Los Angeles Galaxy Feel Zlatan Ibrahimovic Can Be Tempted To MLS

But the 35-year-old – United’s leading goalscorer this term – will then serve a three-match domestic ban after elbowing Bournemouth defender Tyrone Mings at the weekend.

LA Galaxy have told Zlatan Ibrahimovic they are prepared to make him the highest paid player in Major League Soccer history if he joins them from Manchester United this summer.

Bournemouth, who were reported to be considering an appeal, have until 1800 GMT Tuesday to decide whether to contest the charge against Mings.

Mings will now miss the Cherries’ games against West Ham, Swansea, Southampton, Liverpool and Chelsea.

It also upheld the FA’s assertion that the offence was too serious to be treated with the standard three-match suspension, meaning centre-back Mings will be sidelined until mid-April.

But with Ibrahimovic yet to say yes, the Galaxy are sniffing around.

Diego Costa is the 7/2 favourite in the first goalscorer betting while Marcus Rashford is considered United’s main threat at 13/2 to net first in Ibrahimovic’s absence.

UNITED has held talks with LA Galaxy over becoming the highest paid MLS player ever, claims Alexi Lalas.

Marcus Rashford’s career so far, has been built on taking chances and converting them to great performances and important goals – both literally and figuratively and who is to say he can not do it another time.

Craig Burley and Mark Donaldson react to the FA’s decision to charge Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Tyrone Mings for violent conduct.

Ibrahimovic has enjoyed a fine debut season with United and is the Red Devils top scorer with 26 goals in all competitions.

Old Trafford boss Jose Mourinho has said he believes that Ibrahimovic returns to the team.

Scott is one of ESPN FC’s Manchester United bloggers.

“I see a defender who has made a very good tackle trying to get back to his goal as quickly as possible”.
