Lazio have announced the capture of Inter Milan midfielder Davide Frattesi on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season.
Inter Milan & Lazio Rapidly Agreed Davide Frattesi Move
The transfer came together in almost record time, as the two clubs started the negotiations on Tuesday, and a deal was reached by Thursday. The 26-year-old was supposed to arrive in Rome by Friday midday, but the operation hit a stumbling block, with the Lega Serie A blocking the operation due to the restrictions imposed on Lazio’s transfer market operations this summer.
And yet, a phone call between the two club presidents, Claudio Lotito and Giuseppe Marotta, swiftly resolved the whole situation , with the two men agreeing to change the formula for the deal to go through. While the obligation to buy was dropped, the new accord is based on a €5 million loan with an option to buy set at €10 million, plus a 50% sell-on clause in Inter’s favor.

This is a homecoming for Frattesi, who began his career at Lazio’s academy, before making the crosstown switch to Roma. The midfielder then went on to make a name for himself at Sassuolo, which earned him a €32 million transfer to Inter in the summer of 2023.
Although he never established himself as a regular starter with the Nerazzurri, the Italian international still managed to score crucial goals off the bench, including an extra-time winner in the epic Champions League final against Barcelona in May 2025.
