Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti has played down talk of a swap deal involving Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o.

Sweden international Ibrahimovic's future is uncertain and he has been linked with a summer move away from Serie A this summer.

Barca are said to be interested in his services and the player's agent has confirmed the Spanish giants would be a tempting destination.

"I only know that if the two clubs find an agreement we would not have trouble agreeing with Barcelona," Mino Raiola told reporters.

It has been suggested Eto'o, whose future is also the subject of conjecture, could leave Barca, and a swap deal has been mooted.

But Moratti, who met with Barca supremo Joan Laporta on Thursday, said: "It has been only a dinner between friends.

"I don't see an Ibrahimovic-Eto'o exchange."
