Davide Santon set for Italy return

Newcastle defender Davide Santon will leave the club today. Inter Milan have had a bid accepted for the full back.

Santon had struggled for first team time under former manager Alan Pardew in recent seasons and has now been told he can leave. Inter Milan have had their bid of 4 million euros accepted and Santon is to fly in for talks with the club this morning. Santon was signed by the Toon Army from Inter and thus the player will return to his former club.
