Juventus are unlikely to sign Inter Milan castaway Davide Frattesi next month due to the player’s high cost.
According to Sky Sport via FCInterNews, Inter’s valuation of the 26-year-old midfielder could deter the Bianconeri from making a move.
Davide Frattesi has set one foot outside San Siro after being deemed surplus to requirements by the manager.
Indeed, Cristian Chivu has handed the former Sassuolo star just one Serie A start this season, prompting him to reconsider his future.
Therefore, Frattesi could request a winter transfer.
Despite his struggles at San Siro, Frattesi remains a hot property, with several elite clubs vying for his signature.
Juventus boss Luciano Spalletti is Frattesi’s long-term admirer and has already told the club to pursue his signature.
However, the record-time Italian champions have no intention of meeting Inter’s €35 million asking price.
Indeed, the Turin giants would rather sign Frattesi on loan with an option to buy.
Yet, Inter will hardly agree to such terms.
