Inter Milan Midfielder Stefano Sensi Flies To Complete Leicester City Move
The former Sassuolo man will sign a contract until the summer of 2025. He will earn circa 2 million per season in addition to bonuses.
For their part, the Nerazzurri would collect 2.5 million euros as a bonus if Leicester were to secure promotion to the Premier League.
The East Midlands club is currently leading the Championship table by 10 points. Therefore, they appear bound for a swift EPL return following their dramatic demotion last season.
As for Sensi, he’ll be looking to put his career back on track following a disappointing first half of the season.
The 28-year-old rejoined Simone Inzaghi’s ranks in the summer following a loan stint at Monza. But between recurring injury problems and stern competition for places, he only made four second-half cameos in all competitions this term.
