Melo set for Palmeiras

By Football Italia staff

Inter midfielder Felipe Melo is expected to officially complete his move to Palmeiras in the next 24 hours.

The Brazilian joined the Nerazurri in the summer of 2015 from Galatasaray, but neither Frank de Boer nor Stefano Pioli could find space for him this term.

Rumours have been growing in recent days that Melo will return to his homeland, and calciomercato.it is reporting that his move to Palmeiras will be finalised imminently.

Sao Paulo had tried to hijack the deal for the 33-year-old, but it appears he will continue his career with their city rivals.
