One of the top strikers in the world will remain with his club despite rumors he was on the way out. AC Milan and Swedish international Zlatan Ibrahimovic put an end to speculation that he would transfer to Paris St. Germain this summer.

Reports from France stated the French club was offering 40 million euros for the striker but Ibrahimovic insists he's happy in Italy and isn't going anywhere.

"It is not true," Ibrahimovic told Gazzetta dello Sport. "PSG? No. There are so many things being said about my future but those are only rumors. I am a Milan player and I am very happy in this club."

There is no reason Milan would look to get rid of their star player. Ibrahimovic, 30, was the top scorer in Ligue 1 last season with 28 goals in 31 games. His contract with Milan lasts until June 2015.

Unlike Ibrahimovic, Inter Milan defender Maicon may be joining PSG soon. The Brazilian international has been linked to the French club and is considering a change of scenery.

"After six years, it could be that the time has arrived for a change of scenery for Maicon," his representative Roberto Calenda said to Sky Sport Italia. There are several offers but we will evaluate them."

Maicon, 30, appeared in 24 league matches for Inter this season. He joined the club in 2006 and has one year left on his contract.

In other news, Goran Pandev has sign a three-year deal with Napoli. He played with the team last year on a one-year loan from Inter Milan. He scored six goals in 30 league games.

"I am in seventh heaven," Pandev told www.calciomercato.com. "I wanted to stay at Napoli at all costs after a year in which I have felt right at home.
