MiType: Inter Milan is preparing to renew his contract with Vlatesi, but whether he can get more opportunities still faces fierce competition

August 16, according to the Milan Sports Daily, Inter Milan is preparing to renew his contract with Vlatesi, but whether he can get more opportunities still needs to face fierce competition.

Flatesi is gradually recovering from an inguinal hernia surgery he underwent on July 10. He has been training alone with the assistance of a personal trainer and is ready to return to his best condition. The club is ready to renew his contract and raise his annual salary, indicating that he is a "not selling product" at Inter Milan.

The question is whether Flatesi will get more opportunities to start in the new season. He has made 89 appearances in various competitions in the past two seasons, with only 27 starting times, of which 16 games have been played in the 2024/25 season. From this perspective, if Inzaghi was still in office, Vlatesi might have left the team, but under Ziwo, Vlatesi is ready to compete for the start, but the question is in which formation.

Let's start with 3-5-2, which is the main formation used by Inter Milan in the past two seasons. In this system, Vratesy usually appears in the right midfield position, but the problem is that the competition is very fierce: Barrera is the unshakable main force, and Susic has joined, and in the last two warm-up matches, the Croatians performed well. Although they do not have the ability to attack afterwards, Susic can be competent at the No. 6 position and can play at the No. 8 position, which is very comprehensive.

In addition, there is veteran Mkhitaryan, who will turn 37 in January next year. This may be his last season at Inter Milan, but his technical ability cannot be ignored.

If you use the 3-4-2-1 formation, Vlatesi may have more opportunities in the offensive midfield position. Because he is more of an impact player, good at inserting, attacking penalty areas and deep spaces, rather than a ball-handed or organized midfielder. Getting him closer to the goal may be the best way to maximize his offensive ability.

However, in this position, Inter Milan has signed Boni and is trying to transform Turam Jr. and is still pursuing Lukeman. These guys are key players on the offensive end, which means that the competition for Flathi's position will be more intense.
