Inter Milan striker Sebastiano Esposito is one step away from joining Cagliari.

This according to Sky Sport Italia transfer market expert Gianluca Di Marzio, via FCInterNews. He reports that the clubs have come close to an agreement for the 23-year-old’s transfer today.

It has always looked clear that Sebastiano Esposito will leave Inter Milan this summer.

The Italian youth team international has gone out on a number of loan spells. He has played for the likes SPAL, Venezia, Basel, Anderlecht, Bari, and Sampdoria.

Last season, Esposito was out on loan with Empoli. While his individual form was strong, this was not enough to prevent the Tuscans from suffering relegation to Serie B.

Therefore, Empoli did not sign Esposito on a permanent basis.

The 23-year-old returned to Inter, with whom he travelled to the United States for the Club World Cup.

Esposito even started a couple matches for the Nerazzurri at that tournament. However, that hardly changed his fate – he is not a part of Inter’s plans.

However, Cagliari are also reportedly keen on signing Esposito.

And according to Gianluca Di Marzio, it is the Sardinians who have gotten close to a deal for the Inter striker.

The Sky transfer expert reports that today, there was another round of talks between Inter and Cagliari.

And these talks were just about decisive. Therefore, it should only be a matter of time before Esposito joins Cagliari.
