Moses has arrived in Italy for a medical, with the wing-back close to
completing a move from Chelsea to Inter Milan.
Moses, who has made six appearances in the Super Lig for Fenerbahce this
term, landed in Milan on Monday evening, Sky in Italy are reporting.
An agreement has been made "in principle" between Inter and Chelsea for the
29-year-old, as confirmed by Inter's sporting director Piero Ausilio.
In his press conference on Monday, Chelsea head coach Frank Lampard said:
"On Victor Moses; he's obviously coming back from his loan with a view to
going elsewhere, and those talks are ongoing as well."
The 29-year-old is set to become the fourth Premier League player to move to
the Serie A club this season, following Ashley Young, Romelu Lukaku and
Alexis Sanchez's transfers from Manchester United.
Nigeria international Moses, whose deal at Stamford Bridge is due to expire
in June 2020, arrived at Chelsea in 2012 from Wigan Athletic and since then
has enjoyed loan spells at Liverpool, Stoke City and West Ham.
The winger has scored 18 goals and made 128 appearances in a Chelsea shirt.
Meanwhile, Inter, who previously made an offer of £8.5m for Tottenham's
Christian Eriksen, are now willing to pay £11m plus two bonuses to sign the
midfielder this month and Ausilio will meet with Spurs chairman Daniel Levy
on Tuesday to hold further talks.
Young has joined Antonio Conte's squad after his £1.3m move was finalised
last week, while the club remain interested in Chelsea forward Olivier
Giroud.
Chelsea boss Lampard also says he is open to signing players on short-term
deals this month and has not ruled out a move for PSG striker Edinson
Cavani.
