Candreva, a versatile winger who can also operate as a full-back, joins the Nerazzurri after the club was taken over by a new majority ownership group Suning. Inter indicated the signing "reinforces the strategy of bringing Italian players to the club to strengthen the team."
Candreva, for his part, was pleased with the move.
"I am really happy and proud to be here," Candreva said in a club statement. "I always wanted Inter and I'm really excited to become a Nerazzurri player at last.
"I'd like to thank Lazio for the seasons we spent together and for giving me the chance to realise this dream.
"I can't wait to play at San Siro and feel the passion of the Inter fans."
