The versatile wing-back spent much of last year on loan at Fenerbahce before reuniting with his former coach Conte and his deal with Inter Milan has a purchase option at the end of the season.
Speaking to Sky Sports UK, Di Marzio said : "Conte likes the intensity of the Premier League, of the games, of the players, the attitude of training.
"Ashley Young he wanted him to buy him in Chelsea two years ago, in 2017, and Moses with him was incredible, 78 appearances and eight goals in two years.
"The medicals of Moses were very accurate because he had some problems, he had an important medicals for one day before it was made official.
