John Stones has verbally agreed to join Inter on a free transfer, according to Sky in Italy.
The England defender’s representatives are now set to finalise terms with Inter over a two-year contract.
Juventus made contacts with the England defender’s camp over the weekend. He also has interest from Arsenal and Chelsea in the Premier League.
Inter were aware of the significant interest and worked to close a deal for the 32-year-old.

Interest remains in Spurs captain Cristian Romero, who is head coach Christian Chivu’s top defensive target.
However, the cost of a potential deal for Romero is expected to be significant.
There is a potential for Inter to sign Romero and Stones if Benjamin Pavard leaves, but as things stand, it is Stones that the Italian champions are pushing for.
