Joao Mario will make a decision on his Inter future in the next 48 hours according to a report from FCInterNews.it.

Inter and West Ham have reached an agreement in principal over the transfer of the Portuguese midfielder and will soon meet to iron out the final details of the deal.

The two clubs have agreed upon a loan deal until the end of the season – with the Premier League club paying a €1.5 million loan fee – which also includes an option to turn the move permanent for €22 million. Although, Inter would like to increase this fee in the upcoming meeting in order to re-coup even more of the €40 odd million they paid for him just 18 months ago.

It is understood that the 24-year-old, alongside agent Kia Joorabchian, has asked to have 48 hours to make a decision on the possible transfer to the Hammers.

This term Joao Mario has not only struggled for form but a regular starting berth also, making just six starts all season.
