Report – Juventus Tipped To Make Audacious Swoop For Inter Milan & Italy Midfielder After Luciano Spalletti’s Arrival | OneFootball

Juventus manager Luciano Spalletti is reportedly a big-time admirer of Inter Milan fringe midfielder Davide Frattesi.

According to Italian journalist Matteo Moretto via FCInter1908, the former Scudetto winner keeps the 26-year-old star in high regard.

Spalletti returned to Serie A earlier this month as Juventus appointed him their new head coach after sacking Igor Tudor.

Now, the former Napoli boss could convince the club to make a move for Inter ace Davide Frattesi.

Despite arriving at San Siro with the promise of reigniting his career, Cristian Chivu has shown little faith in Frattesi during the early stages of the season.

Indeed, the ex-Sassuolo midfielder remains a fringe player in Chivu’s system, a situation that could prompt Juventus to table an offer.

Stuck behind Nicolo Barella, Petar Sucic, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan in the pecking order, Frattesi might consider leaving Inter in January.

However, Juventus have yet to make contact with Inter over a potential deal for the Italian midfielder.
