Nottingham Forest are preparing an opening bid for Inter Milan midfielder Davide Frattesi, according to multiple reports. Sky Sport Italia and Football Italia say Forest are ready to start negotiations with an offer of €25 million plus bonuses, positioning the move as an attempt to secure the player despite Inter’s stance. Yahoo Sports reports that Inter are holding out for around €30 million, leaving a valuation gap of roughly €5 million as the main obstacle to agreement. The reports describe Frattesi as being at a decision point, with Forest seeking to advance talks and potentially close the gap through add-ons or further negotiation. While the sides’ figures differ between an initial offer and Inter’s asking price, all accounts indicate that the transfer depends on whether Forest can meet Inter’s valuation or whether Inter are willing to accept a package structured with bonuses. Negotiations are ongoing and there is no reported agreement as of the latest coverage.
