The website "Football Italy" reported that Davide Frattesi, Inter Milan's midfielder, will begin specialized individual training on Tuesday for the first time since undergoing surgery in July to repair a bilateral sports hernia.

Frattesi had the surgery after the team's participation in the Club World Cup in the United States, and he continued his rehabilitation at home before returning to the club's training center for gym workouts.

According to the report, Frattesi is expected to play a more offensive role upon regaining full fitness, especially if coach Cristian Chivu relies on the 3/4/2/1 formation he experimented with during the preseason, as he would be among the trequartisti behind the striker.

The source added that Inter Milan is considering extending Frattesi's contract for an additional season, keeping him with the team until the summer of 2029.
