The Milan-based club has the option to make the Portugal international's move permanent for a reported fee of 35 million euros ($41 million).

"I intend to settle in as quickly as possible, I'm a player who likes to help my team mates and I'll give my all for Inter," said Cancelo, capped five times by Portugal.
