Inter Milan star Davide Frattesi heads for the operating table after months of pain from a troublesome inguinal hernia. The midfielder has battled through the injury for ages before deciding surgery was his only option. Team doctors worked with Frattesi to pick the perfect timing for his operation. Inter crashed out of the Club World Cup against Brazilian side Fluminense, which opened up his schedule. The Italian wants to be completely healthy when the new season kicks off.
Journalist Gianluca Di Marzio broke the news on social media about the upcoming procedure. Frattesi faces between 20 and 30 days away from football action during his recovery period. Inter management believes the absence will not hurt their preparations for the upcoming campaign. The club wants their midfielder back at full strength rather than playing through constant discomfort. Medical experts advised the surgery as the best path forward for his long-term health.
Coach Cristian Kivu recently had heart-to-heart talks with Frattesi about his future role at the club. The manager made it clear that Frattesi would be a central figure rather than just backup for Barella. These conversations boosted the player's confidence and made him want to sign a new contract. His current market value stands at 35 million euros, making him attractive to other teams. Inter could sell him if their finances demand it, but they prefer keeping their talented midfielder around for years to come.
