Inter Milan appear to be closing in on a deal to sign Sime Vsraljko from Atletico Madrid, Gianluca DiMarzio claims.
The right-back who starred Croatia in their run to the World Cup final this summer, is keen to move to the Serie A despite Diego Simeone’s attempts to persuade him to stay in the Spanish capital.
The 26-year-old has instead opted to be first choice at the San Siro instead of facing another season of jostling with Juanfran for a starting berth.
The Italian side will pay an initial €6.5 million to complete a loan move with a further option to buy for €17.5m.
