It seems that David Suazo has decided to agree to a move to Benfica. The Inter striker did not fancy a move to either Sampdoria or Palermo, but the Portuguese side are considered prestigious enough by the Honduras striker, who is willing to move away from Serie A if it means playing for a better club.
The deal will most likely be temporary, a loan deal with the right to a purchase, which has become one of the most common transfer formulas in football nowadays.
Sampdoria and Palermo will be disappointed with this news, as they both wanted to sign a major striker to reduce the gap with the big teams.
Inter will not be unhappy about Suazo's departure, however, as it now paves the way for them to sign Ricardo Quaresma from Porto and complete the forward line.
David Suazo was signed only last summer by Inter from Cagliari for around 10 million euros, but he has failed to shine with the Nerazzurri, scoring just 8 goals last season. However, it must be said he did not get much playing time either.
