Inter confirm Eder capture

 

Inter have announced they have signed Sampdoria striker Eder on a four-and-a-half year deal.

 

Roberto Mancini’s side have been heavily linked with a move for Eder since the January transfer window opened but looked to have missed out following late interest from Premier League leaders Leicester.

 

However, former Inter captain Andrea Ranocchia completed a switch to Sampdoria on Thursday, which is thought to have helped broker the deal reported to be worth £10m.

 

“I’m thrilled to be here. So many years of sacrifice in my work led me to come to a great club like Inter,” Eder told club’s official website.
