Choutos shoots back to Italy

FC Internazionale have announced the signing of Greek international striker Lampros Choutos.

Italy experience
The 24-year-old has signed a contract until 2007 with the Nerazzurri, who yesterday appointed Roberto Mancini as their new coach. A product of Panathinaikos FC's youth system, Choutos moved to Italy when he was just 13 to sign for AS Roma. He played for seven years with the Giallorossi, twice topping the scoring charts of the Primavera youth league.

U21 record
Choutos made his Serie A debut when he was just 16 against SSC Napoli and an international debut for Greece against Moldova in 1999 followed an impressive 18 goals in ten matches for the Under 21 side. In 2000, he returned to Greece to sign for Olympiacos, where he twice won the league title.

Not in Portugal
He has been capped by Greece eleven times, scoring twice, and appeared in one UEFA EURO 2004™ qualifier but missed out a place in the final squad that went on to glory in Portugal. At Inter, Choutos will be reunited with international colleague Georgios Karagounis.
