Vadim Vasilyev, the Vice-President of Monaco, confirms to BeinSports France journalists what was reported in the national press about the deal with Inter for Keita:

“Yes, we are dealing with the Nerazzurri. There are still some details to file, so I can not say that is closed, but we are on the right track.” He added: “I think we have enough players in attack, but, as always, I remain pragmatic: if there are great opportunities that arise, we will not hesitate to catch them.”

Keita Balde is all set to return to Serie A with the Nerazzurri and is expected to arrive on Monday to finalise details and confirm his transfer to the black and blue half of Milan after his previous Serie A experience with Lazio.

Despite a season littered with injuries, Keita was still able to contribute eight goals and five assists for Monaco and the Interisti will be hoping he can contribute more than this to Inter’s attack this year sharing the responsibility with Icardi, Perisic and Martinez.
