AS Roma can confirm that a deal has been agreed with Inter Milan for the permanent transfer of midfielder Radja Nainggolan.

Nainggolan, 30, joins the Nerazzurri for an initial fee of €38 million.

In the case of Nainggolan's future transfer, the agreement also includes a sell-on clause entitling the Giallorossi to 10% of any fee received by Inter - up to a maximum of €2m.

Nainggolan joined the Giallorossi from Cagliari in January 2014 - in an initial loan agreement that was subsequently made permanent.

Over four-and-a-half years at the Stadio Olimpico the Belgium international made 203 appearances in all competitions for the Giallorossi - scoring 33 goals.

Last season he played a total of 40 games under coach Eusebio Di Francesco, scoring six goals and helping the side finish third in Serie A as they also reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.

The club would like to place on record its gratitude to Nainggolan, and wishes him well for the future.
