Ibrahimovic ready for visit of Champions League holders

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has warned Manchester United that Inter Milan are 'fearless' ahead of their UEFA Champions League meeting. Inter host the European champions at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on Tuesday evening in the first leg of their last 16 tie. The Red Devils head into the fixture in outstanding form, having recorded 10 straight Premier League victories. But highly-rated striker Ibrahimovic is confident Inter have enough quality to dispose of the holders, as the Italian club aim to lift Europe's most prestigious trophy for the first time since 1965. Ibrahimovic said in the Daily Star: "United might be the champions of Europe, but we do not fear them. "Inter are the kings of Italy and we want to show we are the best. It is a shame we face each other now because the tie deserves to be a final. "We want to show that we can be the champions of Europe." The Swede added: "I think that (manager Jose) Mourinho is the best coach in the world at the moment and he will know how to handle this game, especially as both Porto and Chelsea have beaten United in the past. "Mourinho does not change under pressure. He has been as optimistic as he always is in the lead-up to this game."
