Inter Milan chief Piero Ausilio says their deal for Tigre midfielder Ruben Botta isn't over the line.

The transfer is in the balance after Botta suffered a serious knee injury last week.

Ausilio said: "His transfer is not yet completed, but we do not want this injury to affect his possible future at Inter.

"He's young, has plenty of time to prove that he deserves the Nerazzurri shirt."
