Inter Milan have placed a €35 million valuation on Davide Frattesi as Juventus continue to monitor the midfielder’s situation ahead of the January transfer window.

According to Tuttosport, via FCInterNews, there have already been “initial exploratory contacts” between Juventus officials and Frattesi’s representatives.

The former Sassuolo midfielder is appreciated by new Juve coach Luciano Spalletti, but any deal is considered complex, particularly mid-season.

The main obstacle is Inter’s stance on valuation.

While the Nerazzurri are open in principle to granting Frattesi a move if the right conditions emerge, there will be no discounts.

The price tag is set at a minimum of €35m, a figure Juventus could attempt to structure through a loan.

A temporary move with an obligation to buy, triggered under specific conditions, is one potential outcome.

Inter are also said to be considering creative solutions, including the possibility of a wider deal involving Khephren Thuram.

However, Tuttosport is clear that Juventus have no intention of entertaining such a swap.

The French midfielder is viewed as a cornerstone of the club’s future project and is considered non-negotiable.

As a result, any move for Frattesi would have to be a straight financial operation.

Juventus are weighing their options, while Inter remain firm on their valuation as the January window approaches.
