- Newcastle renew interest in Frattesi
- Loan with obligation to buy explored
- انتر open to talks on midfielder
وفق سكاي سبورت Newcastle have returned for Inter midfielder Frattesi, opening discussions over a loan deal with an obligation to buy. The الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز club are eager to strengthen their midfield and view the Italian international as an ideal addition. Inter, however, remain firm on their €40 million (£34m/$44m) valuation and are only open to such a formula if the conditions are straightforward and guaranteed.
Frattesi joined Inter in 2023 from Sassuolo and quickly built a reputation for scoring decisive goals, including a دوري أبطال أوروبا semi-final winner against برشلونة last season. Despite his knack for delivering in key moments, he struggled to establish himself as a regular starter under Simone Inzaghi. With Cristian Chivu now in charge, the Nerazzurri see the 25-year-old as a player worth keeping and are even considering extending his contract. The Magpies’ interest highlights the demand for midfield reinforcements in the Premier League, but the deal hinges on financial terms aligning with Inter’s stance.
The Italian has long been admired in إنجلترا for his energy and ability to make late runs into the box. Newcastle believe he can add goals from midfield while also fitting into Eddie Howe’s high-intensity system. However, the sticking point remains Newcastle’s proposal: their obligation to buy is tied to tougher conditions, while Inter want guarantees that make a transfer inevitable. Despite not being officially listed for sale, Frattesi’s future could yet be decided if Newcastle improve their terms.
Newcastle are expected to hold further talks with Inter as they seek to adjust their offer. If the Magpies can present a package that satisfies the Nerazzurri, a deal could progress quickly. Inter, meanwhile, will push to keep Frattesi unless the English side come forward with a bid that reflects their demands. The midfielder’s future will likely be resolved before the end of the transfer window.
