Inter Milan & Italy Midfielder Edging Closer To Recovery After Undergoing Abdominal Surgery | OneFootball

Inter Milan midfielder Davide Frattesi is making steady progress in his recovery following recent surgery.

According to Sky Sport via FCInterNews, the 25-year-old’s recovery is progressing beyond expectations.

Davide Frattesi recently underwent abdominal surgery.

Indeed, he had to watch from the sidelines as Inter embarked on a new era under Cristian Chivu.

Frattesi wasn’t part of the squad that failed to make it out of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.

Despite being close to leaving San Siro during Simone Inzaghi’s tenure, Frattesi looks set for a more prominent role.

Chivu’s formational change will benefit the former Sassuolo midfielder.

Furthermore, he could leapfrog Henrikh Mkhitaryan in the pecking order.

Frattesi’s rehabilitation started yesterday. But he should not return to the fold before mid-August.

Indeed, the goal is to have him back for Inter’s final pre-season friendly against Olympiacos.

Meanwhile, Yann Bisseck, Hakan Calhanoglu, Benjamin Pavard, and Piotr Zielinski returned to training earlier today.

However, all four are working individually as they’re recovering from injuries.
