Forlan quits inter,signs three-year deal with Internacional

Brazilian side Internacional have confirmed via their official website that they have signed Diego Forlan from Inter.

 The 33-year-old Uruguayan has signed a three-year deal with the Brazilian club after the Nerazzurri agreed to terminate his contract.

 Forlan arrived at San Siro last summer as a replacement for Samuel Eto'o but failed to make his mark at the club, scoring just two goals in 22 appearances.

 The former Atletico Madrid ace is still in Milan, but will fly into Porto Alegre on Saturday - the same day Internacional will take on Cruzeiro in the Brasileiro.

 Brazilian sources claim that Forlan will earn around €2 million per annum at Colorado, which will make him one of the highest earners at the club.

Forlan staying at Inter, says father

Diego Forlan will not leave Inter Milan in the upcoming transfer window, the player's father has suggested.

 The former Atletico Madrid man failed to make an impact at Inter after arriving in 2011, netting just two goals in 18 Serie A appearances.

 Forlan has been linked with a move to Atletico Mineiro, and both clubs confirmed that there were negotiations over a possible transfer. However, his father Pablo has all but ruled out a move away from the Giuseppe Meazza.

 "For the time being there is no negotiation with any club," Forlan senior told Inter's official website.

 "As it is now, he will remain at Inter. He has one year left on his contract with the Nerazzurri."
