In an effort to stave off European interest, Inter have successfully secured new deals for Rene Krhin and Vid Belec which tie them to the club until 2014.

La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the club has come to an agreement with the players' agent Marcel Kacinari, which will see both Slovenians earn an annual salary of around €300,000 plus bonuses.

The 19-year-old's are highly thought of by the Nerazzurri coaching staff, and Krhin has already made a handful of appearances for both the Inter first team and the senior Slovenia national side.

Meanwhile, Belec is likely to be farmed out on loan in the near future, as there will be few opportunities for the Slovenia Under-19 'keeper to shine in the first team.

Manchester City had been looking to take both youngsters on permanent deals, while Liverpool and Chelsea had also been credited with an interest by the British press.
