Reports suggest Barca will pay about £35m plus 28-year-old Eto'o in return for Ibrahimovic, 27.
In addition, Alex Hleb will spend a season on loan at the Italian club.
"The signing depends on Ibrahimovic, on Eto'o and all parties," said Barca president Joan Laporta, who is also keen to sign Valencia's David Villa.
"David Villa as an option is not finished. We haven't discarded any possibilities, " Laporta said on Friday.
Eto'o came close to agreeing a move to Manchester City, before the Eastlands side ended their pursuit on 10 July.
The Cameroon international has scored more than 100 goals in five seasons at the Nou Camp but has been regularly linked with moves away from the club and is out of contract next summer.
Since signing for Inter from Juventus following the Turin side's demotion to Serie B in 2006, Ibrahimovic has become one of the most prized strikers in Europe.
The Swede was top scorer in Serie A last season and has reportedly attracted attention from Real Madrid and Manchester United as well as European champions Barca.
Inter and Barcelona have done business once already this summer with Brazilian left-back Maxwell moving to Spain in a £3.9m deal.

faaaaak another treble for barca coming up!
Shoot forward to a week from now where the signing has been totally finalised and you'll have Platini saying how Barca has saved the transfer market from overinflated prices and Laporta saying that 94 million was too expensive for the best player in the world but 87.5 million for a lazy, all be it top goalscoring striker (not that Eto'o wasn't that anyway) was the bargain of the century.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I just cant stop laughing with the post from a madrid fan!!!
U guys have spent more on players this year than some countries have money!
and ur saying BARCA WONT WORK cos of too many stars????
Real is the team that is gonna struggle next year, with ur so called superstars having dummy spits!
Barca V Real games would b awesome to watch as Barca will outscore real in a shootout! with Barcas forward line way too superior for reals makeshift defence!
And also Barcas defence looks impressive and will nulify most of what real throw at them!
still predicting Barca to win 6-5, 5-4
