Despite doing everything to prevent Davide Frattesi from joining Roma in January, Inter could sign Pellegrini.

Indeed, Claudio Ranieri’s charges are reluctant to keep hold of unhappy players and would be open to letting their star leave.

Meanwhile, Pellegrini’s exit would make room for Frattesi’s arrival.

The underperforming Inter midfielder could receive the club’s blessing to depart in the summer.

As such, Roma will be eager to pounce on this opportunity.

Frattesi may not be the only noticeable midfield departure.

Indeed, Mkhitaryan’s future hangs in the balance as he approaches the autumn of his career.
