Cagliari are ready to complete the signing of young Inter Milan midfielder Gaetano Oristanio on loan for next season.
This according to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews.
Oristanio is edging closer to a loan to Cagliari for next season.
Oristanio’s agent has already confirmed that he’ll be playing in Serie A next season.
Two promoted clubs had already reportedly taken an interest in loaning the Inter midfielder, in the form of Genoa and Frosinone.
However, it looks to be the Rossoblu who are moving quickly to secure a deal to sign the young midfielder.
The Sardinians have been working quickly to find the agreement. On the player’s end, Oristanio is prepared to sign a two-year loan deal with Cagliari.
Cagliari have had to find an agreement with Inter on the deal. But now, according to the Corriere, that is all but settled.
The newly-promoted side will complete the loan signing of Nerazzurri starlet Oristanio in the coming days.
The 20-year-old will follow goalkeeper Simone Scuffet from Cluj, and former Sampdoria, Udinese, and Ascoli midfielder Jakub Jankto from Getafe as the Rossoblue look to make a raft of new signings available to Claudio Ranieri in the next week or so.

Over the past two seasons, Oristanio has played for Dutch team Volendam.
First, the Nerazzurri midfielder helped the Dutch outfit achieve promotion to the Eredivise from the Eerstedivise.
Then, in his first season of regular top flight football at the senior level, Oristanio along with his Inter-owned teammate Filip Stankovic helped Volendam retain their Eredivisie.
Oristanio also won individual accolades throughout the season.
Now it looks clear that Oristanio will be ready for Serie A.
There look to be a few teams interested in giving the 20-year-old his first taste of top flight football in Italy.
Now, it looks as though Cagliari are not far away from making a deal to sign Oristanio. He will have the chance to shine in Serie A.
