“I am very happy to be here and today was my first training session,” the 23-year-old said on Inter Channel.

“Now I want to prepare in the best way for the game against Pescara. It was a positive day, my teammates are very nice and gave me a warm welcome. Now I hope to help them on the pitch.”

Inter are in need of a boost after just one point from the opening two Serie A rounds against Chievo and Palermo.

“Italian football is very competitive, so we’ve got a lot of work to do, but together we can achieve our objectives.

“I want to send a message to the fans, asking them to stay close and support us. We need their help.”
