The Brazilian winger has already agreed to personal terms with the Serie A giants, and according to Gazzetta, Marseille are expected to lower their €30m asking price by circa €10m as the player is willing to join the Nerazzurri.

According to Gazzetta, Inter are confident that the deal will be finalised during their next meeting with the French club and the player’s representatives.

The defending Serie A champions are planning to secure Luis Henrique’s signature before the start of the Club World Cup and initially use him as a backup for Denzel Dumfries on the right flank.

Tuttosport newspaper has reported that Juventus and Premier League clubs are also interested in the Brazilian, but Inter have moved first and have been in talks with both the player and his club for several weeks.
