The future of Davide Frattesi could turn black and white. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the midfielder would very much like to work again with Luciano Spalletti, with whom he got along well in the national team. Both would be happy to reunite, but the deal faces several obstacles in this transfer window.
The former Sassuolo player is not part of Chivu‘s technical plans and Inter intends to sell him. There has also been talk of a straight swap with Nico Gonzalez, with no money involved, involving players with similar salaries.
The problems from Juventus‘s point of view are numerical: the squad has an abundance of midfielders. One of the starters, McKennie, has similar characteristics to Frattesi, and Miretti has also often been used as an attacking midfielder. Among the players being targeted is Kessie, another favorite of Spalletti, who during his time at Roma said in a press conference: “I really like Kessie!”. The midfielder can be a valid alternative only if the sporting director manages to trim down the department.
The Nerazzurri are waiting to understand the future of Frattesi before trying to close a deal with Liverpool for Curtis Jones. Marotta and Ausilio are well aware of their player’s wishes, who last season found little playing time under Chivu due to physical problems and more. Davide could also leave on loan, provided there are conditions for an easy buyout in 2027.
