Negotiations between Inter Milan and Galatasaray over the transfer of Davide Frattesi are reportedly well underway.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the San Siro giants want guarantees they will receive the full €35 million fee.

Cristian Chivu has deemed the 26-year-old midfielder surplus to requirements after a disappointing first half of the season.

Therefore, the player is desperate to find a new club ahead of the upcoming FIFA World Cup.

Furthermore, Inter are open to selling the former Sassuolo star for the right price.

Despite his underwhelming stint at Giuseppe Meazza, Davide Frattesi has drawn interest from several top Serie A clubs.

Indeed, Juventus, Roma, and Napoli have been hot on his trail.

However, Inter are reluctant to sell their fringe midfielder to fellow domestic rivals and are looking to offload him abroad.

Meanwhile, Galatasaray have jumped to the head of the queue, yet Inter’s €35 million asking price remains a potential stumbling block.

It’s also worth noting that the Turks are ready to match Frattesi’s price tag.

Yet, Chivu’s men want firm financial guarantees before giving the green light.
