Diego Forlan wants to join Internazionale before 31 August.

However, Forlan is now keen to quit the Vicente Calderon, according to his father, as the 32-year-old wants to move to Italy and link up with the Nerazzurri.

“Diego is unhappy at Atletico, for whom he has given everything and has been professional, although he has not been treated the same way," Forlan snr told Radio station AM Libre.

"I hope Diego joins Inter and his agent is negotiating in Milan and Diego is anxious for things to be resolved. I am certain he will not stay with Atletico.”
