Galatasaray have ended their pursuit of Inter midfielder Davide Frattesi, making a €40m move to the Süper Lig unlikely. Betting angle: avoid wagers on Frattesi joining Galatasaray; consider markets on him remaining at Inter or registering fewer than 10 starts this season given limited pitch time and continued benching.
Galatasaray Withdraw Interest in Davide Frattesi
Galatasaray have reportedly pulled out of the race to sign Inter Milan midfielder Davide Frattesi, ending a transfer chase that had briefly positioned them as frontrunners. The decision comes after negotiations stalled over the player’s hefty €40 million valuation, prompting the Turkish champions to shift focus to other targets.
Why the Move Fell Through
The cost has been the primary obstacle throughout talks. Despite emissaries being sent to discuss terms and public praise from the Galatasaray coaching staff, the club decided the price-tag outweighed the sporting case. With negotiations deadlocked, Frattesi’s potential departure to Turkey has been shelved for now.
Frattesi’s Situation at Inter
At Inter, Frattesi has struggled for consistent game time under current management, making only four competitive starts this season and often featuring from the bench. Coach selections have limited his opportunities, though a temporary absence for longtime midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu could create a short-term opening for more minutes.
What This Means for Inter and the Player
Inter retain a squad player who has shown promise but remains on the periphery. If no viable transfer materializes, Frattesi faces a season where he must earn trust domestically to revive his market value. Alternatively, Inter could explore other foreign suitors or a loan move if his playing time does not improve.
Betting Implications
Punters should reassess transfer-market bets that included a move to Galatasaray. Markets to consider now include bets on Frattesi remaining at Inter, limited total starts this season, or potential loan moves rather than a direct permanent transfer. Monitor injury updates and squad selection for short-term opportunities that could alter playing-time markets.
