Davide Santon has reportedly signed a new deal with Serie A champions Inter Milan, according to his agent.

Santon is set to earn ten times the amount he's earning now, increasing his seasonal wage from an approximate €100,000 per season to €1 million. The new deal sees the youngster staying with the Nerazzurri until the summer of 2014.

Hailed by the media as the "new Paolo Maldini', Santon has already featured for the Italian national side, though he did not play a single minute for the Arruzzi in the recent Confederations Cup.

The new deal signifies the confidence both Massimo Moratti and Jose Mourinho have in their budding star, a target for praise in the recent months.

Santon made 20 appearances for Inter last season.
