Brazilian defender excited about prospect of playing in Italy

Brazilian defender Juan Jesus has revealed he is on the verge of securing a deal to join Inter Milan. Juan currently plies his trade in his homeland for Internacional but has been attracting interest from some of Europe's top clubs after a series of impressive recent performances. Inter Milan are now close to finalising a transfer and are expected to hold further talks with Brazilian officials over the next few days to tie up any loose ends. Juan is excited about the prospect of linking up with Claudio Ranieri's side in the New Year as he looks to take his career to the next level. "The affair is practically done," the 20-year-old told Fcinter.2908.it. "I hope to be in Italy soon. Inter are a dream."
