Countdown to the arrival of Joao Mario at Inter. On Saturday, Sporting fans greeted him with a standing ovation as he left the pitch: the European champion in the next few hours will make his move to the Nerazzurri official, barring any resounding surprises.
The Inter executives have long since obtained the player’s yes: a five-year, €3 million-a-season deal, while the Lions will immediately cash in €10 million, plus another €35 for the mandatory redemption. He will be the first major coup of the Chinese and the De Boer era.
The Dutch coach, according to Corriere dello Sport, expects to put him on the field as early as next Sunday against Chievo in Verona.
