Speaking at the Jim White show on Wednesday, Raiola revealed that his client had many offers on the table despite a serious knee injury.
But he admitted Ibrahimovic, who should not return to action until 2018, wants to stay in England and prefers to stay at Old Trafford.
Asked if the 35-year-old wants to stay in United, Raiola said: "Oh, yes, he wants to stay in England, he wants to stay on top, and if he sees that he can be a valuable asset to Manchester United, then why not Manchester United?
"He can be a valuable asset to other top clubs as well. But I think it's respectful to talk to Manchester United and see what all parties want."
Ibrahimovic has become a very popular figure at United since arriving from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer last summer.
The charismatic striker scored 28 goals in 46 appearances before his season was interrupted by an injury in April.
José Mourinho is eager to retain the Swedish despite the fact that he may miss up to half of next season.
But, while the player wants to stay at United, Raiola can offer no guarantee that he will be right now.
"We have many offers and ideas and we need to evaluate them," he said.
"He had a fantastic time at Manchester United and it is up to the club and myself to see what the future brings.
"For now, it is important that he recover well and that we will see".
