MILAN, Aug 30 (Reuters) -- Zlatan Ibrahimovic completed his physical on Monday to seal his loan move to AC Milan from Barcelona, the Serie A club said.

The 28-year-old, who watched Sunday's 4-0 win over Lecce in Milan's Serie A opener, left their training ground after the tests to join the Sweden squad for their upcoming Euro 2012 qualifiers.

His move, which Milan hope will catapult them back above his former club and perennial champions Inter Milan, is initially a season-loan with the Rossoneri then paying $30.5 million to secure his services permanently.

Milan said in a second statement that on Monday alone 1,137 fans bought Serie A season tickets out of a total of 21,945 sold so far in the two-month sale period.
