Inter are delighted for Andrei Radu after the goalkeeper finally made his first appearance of the season on Saturday.

Radu started on the bench for the Nerazzurri’s match at home to Sampdoria, but Antonio Conte brought him on to replace Samir Handanovic at half-time.

The 23-year-old kept a clean sheet in the second half as Inter recorded an emphatic 5-1 win, securing a 14th straight home victory.

Radu’s last appearance for Inter came way back in 2016, leading Inter to describe Saturday’s match as ‘a new beginning’.
