Roma would be extremely keen on signing Davide Frattesi should Inter ever opt to cash in on him or if the midfielder wished to depart due to his secondary role. It’s not a very likely scenario, but the Giallorossi would have an advantage in the race, Calciomercato relays.
The former Sassuolo star will face even more competition in the coming seasons. Nicolò Barella isn’t going anywhere, and the Nerazzurri will add Piotr Zielinski. Despite serving as a backup, he still managed to bag 8 goals in 42 games.
Inter could end up paying nearly €40M for the talented midfielder considering the formula they agreed upon with the Neroverdi: a €6M initial fee plus a €27M obligation to buy and €5M add-ons. They’d need the offers from other teams to exceed the €45M threshold to be economically motivated to sell him. However, the sum would decrease for Roma if they decided to go after Frattesi.
The Giallorossi will pocket a decent figure once he’s redeemed thanks to a previous 30 percent re-sale clause. Sassuolo signed him from their youth academy for €5M when he was only 18. Despite some attempts, including one last summer, the reunion never came to be.
Our Take on Roma and Frattesi
He might grow dissatisfied with not being a featured player at some point, but, by the looks of it, that won’t be the case for a couple of seasons. The Giallorossi’s economic inside track will cease to exist in the upcoming one, and he’d have a robust market abroad.
