How do you mention availability without sounding desperate?

Hi, I am writing a cover letter for an internship in the CM division of a MM bank. The opening indicates that I should write my availability on the cover letter. I would be able to start ASAP. How would you phrase this without sounding desperate? "I can start this internship at any moment" sounds too vague in my opinion. I appreciate any input
