Granada defender Jeison Murillo excited about Inter Milan move

Granada defender Jeison Murillo admits he expects to join Inter Milan in the summer.

Murillo, 22, is set to sign with the Nerazzurri at the end of the season.

"It is an opportunity that I hope to make the most of. Of course, it will be different, with Granada we are struggling to stay in La Liga and Inter are building a team for the championship.

"It's a different mentality, I have to fit in as soon as possible to the new goals and I will ask the coach what is needed. It is gratifying that a team like Inter call you and trust in your characteristics.

"I am still young and continue to grow, the Italian league is distinguished mainly because it has some good defenders. I will go there to learn and to grow as a person and as a player."
