Gosens agent on Newcastle snub: ‘Because it’s Inter’

The agent representing Robin Gosens confirms they are down to ‘the details’ for the Atalanta wing-back’s transfer after snubbing Newcastle United. ‘Why did he choose Inter? Because it’s Inter.’

A deal has essentially been done between the two clubs, with a loan and obligation to buy for €22m plus up to €3m in performance-related bonuses.

All that remains is for the personal terms to be finalised and then a medical, which is expected to take place tomorrow in Milan.

Gosens from Atalanta to Inter is a done deal

Agents and intermediaries were spotted visiting Inter headquarters this afternoon, including Paolo Busardò, who was interviewed on the way out.

“It’s not done yet, there are still some details to be sorted out, we’ll see,” he said.

“I don’t know if it’ll be finalised by tonight.”

Having rejected a bigger transfer fee and salary from Newcastle United in order to accept Inter, the agent was asked why Gosens had chosen Inter.

“Because it’s Inter,” was the response.

“We hope it can be the right solution for him.”
