AHN) - Zlatan Ibrahimovic has left Juventus to join Inter Milan for a $31.75 million deal. The 24-year-old Swedish striker follows after Patrick Vieira's exodus from Turin to Milan after the relegation from the match-fixing scandal.
Ibrahimovic had 23 goals in 70 games under his belt for Juve. His new deal is for a four-year agreement.
New Juventus coach Didier Deschamps had said no more players will switch after Vieira, but he has made a ?5.9m profit on Ibrahimovic, who signed in 2004, reports BBC.
The Swede is the second striker to switch to Inter this week after the two-year loan arrangement of Hernan Crespo from Chelsea.
He is also the sixth popular player to resign from Juve after the discredited team sold Fabio Cannavaro, Emerson, Gianluca Zambrotta, Lilian Thuram and Vieira.
The remaining Italian World Cup players still in the Juve roster are Gianluigi Buffon, Mauro Camoranesi, Alessandro Del Piero, Cristiano Zanetti, Pavel Nedved and David Trezeguet.
