Inter Milan have strengthened their squad this summer with English talent after securing deals for John Stones and Djed Spence.
Spence completed his £30m transfer to the Italian champions from Tottenham Hotspur this weekend, and will link up with England teammate Stones at the San Siro, following the latter's free transfer move earlier this summer.
Stones and Spence have become only the fourth and fifth Englishman to have signed for one of Italian football's giants.
Gerry Hitchens became the first English footballer to sign for Inter Milan after arriving from Aston Villa for a fee of £85,000 in 1961.
Hitchens had scored 96 goals in 160 games for Aston Villa, and caught the attention of Inter after netting twice for England in a 3-2 win over Italy in Rome earlier in the year.
