Adriano has pledged his future to his current side Inter Milan by signing a new deal at the club. The brilliant Brazillian has extended his current contract by two years and it willl keepe him at the club until 2010. Adriano had been strongly linked with a move away from Inter over the summer with Chelsea and Real Madrid making admiring glances at the powerful striker. Inter were very keen to keep him at the club and tie him down to a new long term deal.

This news is a massive boost for Inter boss Roberto Mancini with Adriano establishing himself as the clubs most prized asset and he's only 24 years old. Adriano joked that his new deal will see him grow old at the club. "I have signed until 2010? I will be old with white hair ," joked Adriano.

This is very bad news for all of the elite teams in the world because I'm sure any side would love to have him in their squad because he is such a great young player. I personally thought that he would leave Inter and join either Chelsea or Real Madrid but fair play to for not leaving the side that gave him the chance in football at the highest level. I think no matter what club Adriano is playing for he will always be one of the best in the business.
