Inter, it’s Juan Cuadrado’s day
Inter, it’s Juan Cuadrado’s day
Last night Juan Cuadrado landed in Milan on a scheduled flight from Madrid, and this morning the now former Colombian midfielder for Juventus arrived at the CONI center to get his sports eligibility and found a banner from Inter’s Curva Nord with an unmistakable tone: “Until today you have done everything to make people hate you, if it’s more you want it’s up to you to prove it.”
So today for 35-year-old Cuadrado is the day of the resounding move to Inter. As always, the medical examinations are divided into two parts, the first, as mentioned above, at the CONI sports center and then at the Humanitas clinic in Rozzano. If there are no unforeseen events, the South American will sign a contract that will bind him to the Nerazzurri for next season.
His annual salary will be 2.5 million euros net, and in the Inter squad he will serve as Denzel Dumfries’ deputy, but since it was Simone Inzaghi who wanted him, his contribution to the cause of his new team should be far greater than the 656 total minutes collected last season by Raoul Bellanova, who in fact went to Torino.
Cuadrado made his Serie A debut for Udinese, where he played from 2009 to 2011, coming from Independiente Medellin. He later moved for one season to Lecce and two and a half years to Fiorentina. From January to August 2015 he played for Chelsea, winning a Premier League and a League Cup, and then returned to Serie A, to Juventus, with whom in eight seasons he won five Scudetti, four Italian Cups and two Italian Super Cups.
