Inter Milan have signed Alex Telles on loan from Turkish champions Galatasaray.
The Brazilian had been linked to Chelsea earlier this summer but the left-back joined the Serie A side just minutes before the Italian transfer window shut last night.
According to ESPN, the Nerazzurri have an option to purchase the 22-year-old next summer.
Inter president Erick Thohir told the club's website: "Telles will add quality and youth to our side.
"He's a young, pacy full-back – a good fit for our squad – and he'll be able to lend us a big hand with his offensive and defensive ability."
Telles made 36 appearances for Galatasaray last season, scoring one goal and creating one assist. His debut could come against rivals Milan in two weeks' time.
