D'Ambrosio pens Inter extension

Inter defender Danilo D'Ambrosio has signed a contract extension running until the end of the 2020-21 season, the Serie A club have confirmed.

The 28-year-old joined Inter from Torino in January 2014 and has made 97 appearances for the San Siro outfit, scoring seven goals.

D'Ambrosio's form this season earned a maiden call-up to the Italy national team, and he replaced Matteo Darmian during the closing stages of last month's 2-1 friendly win in Netherlands to win a first cap.

Inter lie sixth in Serie A and Stefano Pioli's men will aim to bounce back from a home defeat to Sampdoria last time out when they travel to Crotone on Sunday.
