Inter and Valentino Lazaro have both agreed to extend his current loan deal with Newcastle United until the end of the season according to a statement published by the Premier League club on their website.

Lazaro joined the Magpies on a six month loan deal with option to buy in the most recent January transfer window and that loan was due to expire at the end of this month but his loan is set to be extended until the end of August.

Whilst Newcastle United confirm Inter and Lazaro are in agreement over an extension, the relevant documentation still needs to be finalised and that should be completed in the coming days.

The Austrian national team full back only joined Inter in a circa €20 million deal from Hertha Berlin but having struggled to break into the Inter team in the first half of the season he was loaned to Newcastle United.

Since his arrival, he has made seven appearances across all competitions to date, in which he has scored a single goal.
