Samir Handanovic expects to sign a new Inter Milan deal this week.

The goalkeeper was instrumental in Inter's derby victory over AC Milan yesterday.

Handanovic was happy to help Inter to the summit of the Serie A table and confirmed afterwards that an agreement over a new deal is close.

"I'm happy to be staying, I will sign the renewal in days," said the keeper.

The new contract is expected to keep Handanovic with Inter until 2019.
