Ibrahimovic: I only wanted Barcelona move

New Barcelona signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic says he hasn't come to replace Samuel Eto'o.

Eto'o completed his move to Inter Milan yesterday as part of the stunning swap and Ibra said: "No, I'm not the substitute for Eto'o. He is in the history books of FC Barcelona and I am a different player.

"It is a dream to be here, this is a very big thing. I am very happy.

"I came to win. And here is the best because of the great players of this team. There are several big clubs, but only one special one and that's Barca. Some time ago I told Massimo Moratti (the Inter president) not to listen to offers, unless one came from Barcelona.

"I'm here to win, not just for money. I have come to learn and enjoy."
