Inter Milan ready to go for Sampdoria ace Cassano

Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti has held talks with coach Jose Mourinho about moving for Antonio Cassano. Corriere della Sera says both men have agreed to move for the Sampdoria ace after selling Zlatan Ibrahimovic to Barcelona.

A mega swap could be struck, with Samp management expressing interest in Nelson Rivas, David Suazo and Amantino Mancini.

"It was the right time to sell Ibrahimovic," said Moratti. "He was aware of Barca's interest and had his mind on them for some months. He told us for the development of his career, he saw himself elsewhere.

"I don't know many operations of this level. It's fantastic to get Samuel Eto'o and money in this agreement."
