Davide Santon’s move to Inter Milan has been made permanent.

Reports in Italy suggest that Santon has reached the appearance tally which triggers the move to the San Siro on a full-time basis.

After playing his 10th game in 1-1 draw with Cesena his exit at Newcastle is seemingly confirmed.

It is understood that Newcastle will now pick up £2.8m for the deal which sees Santon back at Inter on a permanent basis.

Santon left the club in January on a season-long loan with a view to a permanent move, but having proved his fitness and reached the tally of games Inter wanted to be satisfied of paying up, the Italian’s stint in the Premier League is over.
