AS Monaco striker Keita Balde Diao is in Italy to sign for Inter Milan.

Keita is set to sign initially on-loan.

“I am really very happy to be here, though I'll be able to talk more tomorrow," said the Senegal international.

“Spalletti was very important in my decision. Now I'm going to get some rest, as I have a big day tomorrow."

Keita will have his medical on Monday morning before signing the five-year contract.
