Soccer-Inter sign Italy winger Politano

Inter Milan have taken up the option to sign Italy international Matteo Politano from Sassuolo on a permanent basis, the Serie A club said on Wednesday. The 25-year-old joined Inter last summer on an initial one-year loan deal and made an instant impact, scoring five goals in 36 Serie A appearances.

Inter, who finished third in 2018-19, will pay 20 million euros ($22.45 million) to complete the deal, La Gazzetta dello Sport reported.
