Spezia are one step away from signing Inter youngster Lucien Agoume on loan according to a report in today’s print edition of Italian daily newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport.

The highly rated young French midfielder, who has often been compared to Manchester United’s Paul Pogba, will sign a contract extension with Inter prior to completing a loan move to the newly promoted Ligurian club.

The report from the the Milan based news outlet does not provide details of the extension that Agoume will sign with Inter nor does it disclose the duration of the loan that he will have at Spezia.

Reports elsewhere in the media in recent wees have howver suggested he will sign a contract extension until 2025 and that his loan move will be for the duration of the fast approaching 2020/21 season.

Last season Agoume, who joined Inter in the Summer of 2019 from FC Sochaux, made three appearances at first team level.
