Inter 'agree Grosso terms'
Inter transfer guru Marco Branca has announced the club is working out the final details for Palermo full-back Fabio Grosso.
“We haven’t sealed the deal yet, but we are very close,” confirmed the Nerazzurri technical director this evening.
“We spoke to Grosso today and discussed the matter. I think we’ll get together again in two or three days to put the final details in place.”
Grosso has been at Palermo for three seasons and his form for the side saw him become an Azzurri regular, so far picking up 15 caps for his country and travelling to Germany for the World Cup.
The 29-year-old is also valuable for his set-piece abilities and would suit Coach Roberto Mancini’s 4-4-2 system.
Branca was also asked to comment on Luca Toni, who has been linked with Inter after hinting his future at Fiorentina was far from secure.
“I have my problems to deal with, I can’t keep an eye on those of other clubs too. I think that any player in the world would like to wear the Inter jersey. This is a great side with an impressive history,” he noted.
Meanwhile, Palermo have secured the services of 39-year-old Chievo goalkeeper Alberto ‘Jimmy’ Fontana, who was out of contract.
