Keita meets agent in Milan

By Football Italia staff

Keita Baldé Diao reportedly met his agent in Milan today, as he’s close to a move from Lazio to Inter.

The forward was given time off today, ostensibly to see his girlfriend, but rumours have been growing of an imminent deal with the Nerazzurri.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Keita did indeed spend the day with his girlfriend, but also met with agent Roberto Calenda.

Inter see him as an ideal replacement for Ivan Perisic, and the Aquile could sell for around €20m rather than losing him for free next year.

That would also be a more attractive option than selling to Juventus, with whom Keita’s agent has talked, though they seem concentrated on Federico Bernardeschi.
