Atletico Madrid striker Forlan puts pen to paper on Inter Milan contract

Atletico Madrid striker Diego Forlan has put pen to paper on an Inter Milan contract.

ANSA says he has put pen to paper on a contract tying him to Inter until June 30, 2013.

The 32-year-old is set to earn €3.5m per season plus €0.5m in performance-related bonuses, which is a wage cut of €0.5m from his pay-packet in Madrid.

Forlan attended a meeting at the club headquarters this afternoon with his agent, Inter Vice-President Rinaldo Ghelfi, technical director Marco Branca and director of sport Piero Ausilio.

"Inter are a great squad full of excellent players," the Uruguayan hitman told the Gazzetta dello Sport.

"We have a good chance of doing well in every competition. I may be 32, but I feel in great shape.

"Besides, in my family we all seem young for our age."
