Frattesi has accumulated a considerable number of minutes on the pitch during his two-year spell at Inter, although he has hardly played as a starter. Consequently, his agent held talks with other Serie A clubs in January.

However, with Inter appointing Chivu as their new head coach, Frattesi is not expected to leave.

According to Gazzetta, Chivu has already informed the 25-year-old that his role will be different in 2025-26, with the Italian expected to feature in the Nerazzurri XI much more regularly.

Inter have already confirmed the purchase of Croatian talent Petar Sucic in central midfield.

Lastly, Gazzetta reports that Inter have not yet received formal offers for Calhanoglu. Galatasaray have joined Saudi sides in the race for the Turkey captain, but Inter won’t listen to offers below €40m.
