The 26-year-old custodian has agreed on a five-year contract with the Serie A club and will join the Nerrazzuri from Ajax as a free agent.

Onana spent seven and a half years with Ajax, making 214 appearances in all competitions during his stint with the Dutch giants.
He suffered a severe punch in February last year when he was handed a 12-month doping ban, which was reduced to nine months on appeal.

The prolific keeper returned to competitive action last November and helped Cameroon to a third-place finish at the Africa Cup of Nations on home soil earlier this year.
Onana had turned down a new contract at Ajax and made just ten first-team appearances last season.
... what's my name? 🖤💙

He will become the fourth Cameroonian to play for Inter after Pierre Wome, Daniel Maa Boumsong and Samuel Eto'o.
Inter finished second in Serie A last season, two points behind the city rivals AC Milan, and have been busy since the transfer window opened.
The Nerazzurri have re-signed striker Lukaku on loan from Chelsea and have also brought in midfielder Kristjan Asllani from Empoli.
