Dutch midfielder Davy Klaassen is now in Milano to complete a deadline-day transfer to Inter Milan.

As we reported last night, the Nerazzurri launched contacts with Ajax in an attempt to lure the 30-year-old to Serie A.

It appears that Beppe Marotta and Piero Ausilio have succeeded in their task, managing to find a swift agreement with their Dutch counterparts.

According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Klaassen arrived in Milano on Friday morning. The source also posted a picture of the player at the airport.

The midfielder’s contract with Ajax was due to expire in 2024. However, the player’s agent was able to convince the club to release him a year earlier. The two parties share an amicable rapport as the source explains.

Davy Klaassen Has Arrived In Milano To Complete A Deadline-Day Free Transfer To Inter Milan

Therefore, the Netherlands international can now complete a free transfer to Inter. The report reveals that he’ll sign a two-year contract with the Italian giants.

The experienced midfielder will add an imposing physical presence in Simone Inzaghi’s middle of the park. This is something that the current crop lacks.

He started his career at Ajax and then went on to represent Everton and Werder Bremen. He returned to the Amsterdam-based giants in 2020.

Yesterday, Inter CEO Marotta insisted that the club will sign a new player with different characteristics. So it appears that the Nerazzurri have indeed found their man.

This should wrap up a busy transfer summer that saw the club signing a host of newcomers. But we shall see if Klaassen’s arrival will prompt a late departure.
