Pinamonti had been linked with Premier League clubs Tottenham and Liverpool, although his agent had suggested the previous month that his fondness for Inter would likely influence a decision over his future.

"In addition to the new contract, we're also discussing the sporting plans with the Nerazzurri," Tullio Tinti told Calciomercato.

"Andrea is highly regarded in Italian and European football, however, his attachment to Inter will have an effect on his decision."

Pinamonti has made two appearances for the senior side this season, against Empoli in Serie A in February and in the Europa League against Sparta Prague.

The Italy youth international has shone for the Primavera side, scoring 16 times in only 20 appearances.
