Inter Star Faces Transfer Amid Agent's Controversy
Davide Frattesi's future at Inter Milan is uncertain as the club weighs selling him due to his agent's controversial negotiations with Serie A rivals.
Inter Milan is facing a challenging situation with Davide Frattesi, the talented midfielder who joined the club earlier this season. Frattesi has not publicly expressed dissatisfaction with his role at the club, but the actions of his agent, Beppe Riso, have created significant tensions.
Riso has been reportedly holding unauthorized talks with several rival Serie A clubs, including Napoli and Juventus. These discussions have frustrated Inter's management, who view such behavior as unprofessional and disruptive. As a result, Inter is seriously considering selling Frattesi during the upcoming transfer window.
According to sources close to the club, Roma has expressed interest in bringing Frattesi back to their squad. Roma's sporting director, Florian Ghisolfi, is actively negotiating with Riso to explore a potential transfer. Inter, however, is also entertaining offers from Napoli and Juventus, setting a steep €70 million price tag for these direct competitors.
In contrast, Roma might secure Frattesi for a reduced fee of around €45 million, as Inter is reportedly open to a structured loan deal with an obligation to buy. Such a move would allow Inter to mitigate financial pressures while maintaining competitive relations with Roma, who are not direct title rivals this season.
The situation highlights the growing influence of agents in modern football, with clubs increasingly frustrated by unauthorized negotiations. Inter fans are now left wondering whether Frattesi's promising future at the club will be cut short due to off-field controversies.
As the January transfer window approaches, the coming weeks will determine whether Frattesi remains at Giuseppe Meazza Stadium or finds himself donning the jersey of a rival club.
