Inter Milan confirm agreement with Roma to sign Radja Nainggolan

Inter Milan have confirmed that an agreement has been reached with Italian rivals Roma to sign midfielder Radja Nainggolan.

The 30-year-old, who last month announced his international retirement after missing out on a place in Belgium's World Cup squad, passed a medical with the Nerazzurri and agreed personal terms on Monday.

Nainggolan scored six goals and registered the same number of assists for Roma last season, having seen a move to Chelsea fall through in the summer.

Inter are close to officially signing the ex-Piacenza and Cagliari ace, however, with a further announcement planned before the end of Tuesday.

"The conditions have been met for a deal for Radja Nainggolan," Inter's sporting director Piero Ausilio told the club's website. "He is a top player. Everything will be made official [on Tuesday] and then we will say something more."

Nainggolan has previously worked under Inter manager Luciano Spalletti at Roma.
