Inter sign Nice defender

 

Inter have announced they have signed Nice defender Dalbert on a five-year deal until June 2022.

 

The Serie A giants have been locked in talks with Nice all summer in a bid to sign the Brazilian defender and have finally made their breakthrough.

 

Dalbert has joined for a reported €20m (£18m) and is the sixth player Luciano Spalletti’s side have signed, as they take their summer expenditure beyond the £70m mark.

 

Inter have invested heavily in the left-back position down the years but Spalletti’s side will now hope they have finally landed a long-term player for that role.

 

 

No player has blocked more crosses than Dalbert (31) since the start of the 2016/17 Ligue 1 season.
