Inter Milan sporting director Piero Ausilio has confirmed that a deal has been agreed for Victor Moses to join the club from Chelsea.
Speaking to Sky Sports Italy, Ausilio has revealed that they are poised to sign Moses from the Blues – despite him currently being on loan to Fenerbahce in Turkey.
Ausilio said this to Sky Italy:
There is an agreement in principle with Chelsea for Victor Moses. We are making evaluations at the moment.
READ CHELSEA VERDICT
Chelsea sanctioned the 18-month loan back in January 2019, which suggests that they did not see him as part of their long-term plans going forward. He is 29-years-old and Chelsea have a number of options in his position, which could be why they have now decided to cash in on him.
Moses flourished in a wing-back role under Conte, playing regularly as the Italian guided Chelsea to their last Premier League title. However, he struggled after the arrival of Maurizio Sarri and a switch to a back four, leaving him unneeded at Stamford Bridge.
Conte, now at Inter Milan, is set to be reunited with the Nigerian international. It will be interesting to see how he fits into his plans in the Serie A and if he is used as a wing-back in his formation, as he could recapture his previous form in that role.
