In a surprising turn of events in the transfer market, Juventus have reportedly made an inquiry about the availability of Inter Milan’s midfielder Davide Frattesi. However, Inter has swiftly and firmly rejected any possibility of a transfer.
Calciomercato report how Frattesi, who joined Inter as a backup to Nicolò Barella, is seen by the club as a potential game-changer off the bench. The player is seeking more playing time, and his role may evolve depending on his performances and manager Simone Inzaghi’s tactical decisions.
According to reports, when Juventus approached Inter for information about Frattesi’s situation, they were met with an unequivocal “no.” Inter considers Frattesi a key element in their project and absolutely non-transferable. The midfielder’s contract, which runs until June 30, 2028, further solidifies Inter’s position.
Juventus’ primary midfield target appears to be Teun Koopmeiners, making it unlikely that they will pursue Frattesi further, especially given Inter’s firm stance.
Inter’s management views Frattesi as an important piece in Inzaghi’s squad, providing specific characteristics that complement the qualities of other midfielders like the newly arrived Piotr Zielinski, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and Barella. Whether as a super-sub or a versatile starter, Frattesi is considered both the present and future of Inter Milan.
