The sale of Davide Frattesi could be the key to unlocking the Nerazzurri’s transfer market. The initial valuation of the former Sassuolo player remains around 30 million euros, but an offer of 25 million including bonuses could be enough to get the green light.
According to Tuttosport, Cristian Chivu is waiting for developments in the coming weeks. The departure of Frattesi, together with that of Kristjan Asllani, is considered necessary to make a decisive move for Curtis Jones. The Nerazzurri coach has long appreciated the Liverpool midfielder and would have liked to have him already in January, but at that time the failed sale of the former Sassuolo player to Nottingham Forest blocked the deal.
As for possible destinations for Frattesi, the Premier League remains a concrete option, while Napoli and Roma, who were interested in recent months, have not pursued the matter further. The Juventus track also remains to be followed, where the midfielder can count on the esteem of Carnevali and especially Luciano Spalletti. So far, the two clubs have ruled out possible swaps, first with Cambiaso and then with Nico Gonzalez, but as the end of the transfer window approaches, scenarios could change. Even a loan with an option to buy could become an option in the second half of August.
As for Jones, Inter are said to have offered 35 million including bonuses, while Liverpool continue to ask for 40. The midfielder’s contract expiring in 2027 could help bring the parties closer together. Before signing a new midfielder, however, the search for a right winger remains the priority.
For the defense, however, Romero now seems out of reach: if Pavard stays, Inter could stop with the Frenchman’s return and the arrival of Stones.
