ITALY (REUTERS) - Inter Milan and Sevilla have made Argentinian international midfielder Ever Banega's transfer back to the Spanish club official, both clubs said on Monday.

They reached a deal last week for the return of Banega to Sevilla after one season with Italian Serie A side Inter after he passed medical tests.

Sevilla said that the 29-year-old, who spent two years at the LaLiga outfit before moving to Inter, had signed a three-year contract.

Italian media reported that the transfer fee for Banega, who made 28 league appearances and scored six goals last season, was €9 million (S$14.1 million).
