“Both sides are satisfied,” Inter director Gabriele Oriali told Sky Sport Italia on Thursday.

“We hope that Mancini can do as well as Cristian Chivu has for us and become an important player."

The transfer fee hasn't been announced but the report suggested that Roma will get $20M.

The Brazil international is set to sign a four-year deal worth $4.5m per season.

The arrival of Mancini means Inter will drop the chase for Porto's winger Ricardo Quaresma.

Mourinho has already identified three summer targets; Mancini, Chelsea's Frank Lampard and a striker whose name is yet to be revealed.
