Sky Sport Italia claim Inter have confirmed that Ibrahimovic will be wearing the number 10 shirt next season...
Inter striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic will get to wear the famous number 10 jersey worn previously by Adriano, Ronaldo, and, of course, the legendary Roberto Baggio.
'Ibra' has only ever worn the number 10 for Sweden. At Ajax he wore the number 8 as he has done at Inter. He was given the coveted 9 at Juventus, but he now joins a list of great names who have worn the number 10 in the Nerazzurri half of the San Siro.
Sky Sport Italia claim Inter have confirmed the numbers for next season and the Sweden international will be given his new shirt and number.
With 'Ibra' wearing the number 10, his former digit 8 will go to Thiago Motta.
The confirmation of the numbers adds further strength to the voices claiming he will be staying. The former Juventus man is expected at Appiano Gentile later today when the Nerazzurri players begin their pre-season training.
Although Ronaldo did wear the number 9 for most of his Inter career, he did wear the number 10 during his first season at the club following his arrival from Barcelona in 1997.
