Inter Milan have completed the signing of defender Tomas Palacios.

The Argentine joined the Nerazzurri on the final day of the transfer window. He made the move from Argentine club Indepdniente Rivadivia, where he’d been on loan from Talleres.

At 21, Palacios is not a player Inter see as a short-term signing.

Rather, the Nerazzurri are hoping that the Argentine can grow into the role of backup to Alessandro Bastoni over the next few seasons.

Inter took to Instagram to reveal that Palacios will be wearing shirt number 42 at the club this season.
