Southampton right-back Cedric Soares has wrapped up a loan move to Inter Milan until the end of the season.

It is understood the deal also includes the option to make the move permanent in the summer.

According to Sky in Italy, Inter will pay an initial loan fee in the region of £500,000, and will need to pay the Saints an initial £9.5m to seal the player long-term.

Sky Sports News reported earlier this week that talks between the clubs were at an advanced stage, as new Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl trims down his squad.
