Departing Inter Milan forward Diego Forlan is set join Brazilian side Internacional, after the club confirmed they had agreed a deal on their official website.
 |
Forlan, 33, joined Inter Milan from Atletico Madrid last summer, but failed to make a significant impact at the San Siro and will now continue his career in South America.
The Uruguayan striker will follow in the footsteps of his father Pablo, who spent seven years in Brazil with both Sao Paulo and briefly Cruzeiro.
A statement from Internacional read: "Diego Forlan is the new reinforcement of Internacional. The Uruguay player is in Milan and will arrive in Porto Alegre on Saturday. The player will be unveiled tomorrow."
Forlan joins fellow Serie A based star Clarence Seedorf in swapping Italy for Brazil this summer after the Dutchman signed for Rio de Janeiro side Botafogo last week.
