Antonio Cassano, the former striker for Inter Milan, believes that Davide Frattesi, a midfielder, is a greater player than Nicolo Barella, a colleague. The daring assertion was made by the always opinionated Cassano on the Viva El Football program, via
Since moving to Inter, Frattesi has become a heated topic of conversation. There has always seemed to be a lot of discussion about the 25-year-old’s play, goals, and form. Frattesi from Sassuolo was signed by Inter for a hefty price. As a result, it would have appeared a little strange that he didn’t have a more obvious route into the Nerazzurri starting eleven. Additionally, Frattesi is a frequent starter for the Italian national team. The 25-year-old has, if anything, established himself as a more significant member of the Azzurri than the Nerazzurri.
“Davide Frattesi is superior to Nicolo Barella,” Cassano said. Most people agree that trying to break into a well-established starting eleven is a challenge for Inter Frattesi.

However, both do favor playing on the right side of midfield.
And of the two players, Barella has unquestionably more experience. Antonio Cassano, a former striker for AC Milan, Real Madrid, and Inter, declared, “I’m crazy for midfielders like Gavi and Frenkie de Jong.” “For this reason, I believe Frattesi, not Nicolo Barella, should play.” “For both Inter and the national team,” Cassano stated. “Because the pitch speaks for itself.” “But then you would have to remove Piotr Zielinski, another outstanding player, and Mkhitaryan.” However, according to Simone Inzaghi’s philosophy, the midfield is always the same, Cassano stated. “Hnerikh Mkhitaryan, Barella, and Hakan Calhanoglu
Additionally, he forbids Frattesi from competing with Barella. despite the fact that he has improved since the previous season. Cassano remarked, “He makes him the 12th man.” “However, I believe it is disrespectful to him.”
