Left-back officially signs for Giuseppe Meazza giants

Inter Milan have announced they have completed the signing of versatile Uruguayan Alvaro Pereira from Porto on a four-year contract. Porto had last Thursday confirmed the deal to the Portuguese stock market, revealing a fee of €10million (£8m). And Pereira's move to Serie A has now been finalised after Inter submitted the necessary documentation to Italian league officials. "Alvaro Pereira is officially an Inter player," read a statement. "The documents for the sale of the Uruguayan player as a permanent deal from Porto have been presented at the Serie A offices. Pereira has signed a four-year deal." Pereira has long been linked with a move away from Porto and last summer was close to joining Chelsea. The 26-year-old left-back, who can also play in midfield, joined Porto in 2009 and was a part of the team who won the Europa League in 2011. Pereira also helped Uruguay win the Copa America that same year.
