Inter Coach Luciano Spalletti confirmed Dalbert will arrive from Nice tomorrow, but “expected more” from his team despite a 3-1 victory over Villarreal.

The Nerazzurri have reportedly done a deal with Nice to sign full-back Dalbert for €20m plus bonuses, so he is due to fly in tomorrow and undergo a medical on Tuesday.

Inter Coach Luciano Spalletti confirmed Dalbert will arrive from Nice tomorrow, but “expected more” from his team despite a 3-1 victory over Villarreal.

The Nerazzurri have reportedly done a deal with Nice to sign full-back Dalbert for €20m plus bonuses, so he is due to fly in tomorrow and undergo a medical on Tuesday.

“I’ve just been told that it’s being finalised, but has not been completed yet,” Spalletti told Sky Sport Italia.

“I too believe that Dalbert is arriving in Milan tomorrow. He is a player who can help us out and we don’t sign players to get rid of others, but so they can contribute to the team.

“Don’t assume Yuto Nagatomo is out, because he’s a good player, he knows what he needs to do and in some ways is perfect.”

Inter saw off Villarreal 3-1 in this evening’s friendly and Stevan Jovetic was again on target with a spectacular scissor-kick volley.

“We were inconsistent and at times passed the ball around too slowly. I expect something more, as I have a good squad at my disposal and a good squad needs to play good football. We mustn’t settle for what is below our capabilities.

“Jovetic is like a thoroughbred, so we know he can score goals like this and has that level of quality. We’re looking more at the overall picture, as we want players with quality who work hard for the team, whether they are Mauro Icardi, Jovetic or Ivan Perisic.”

This evening, Icardi made his first appearance since his injury in April and provided the assist for Marcelo Brozovic’s goal.

“Icardi will be ready to face Fiorentina. There were good signs tonight.”
