He made his European debut in that match, replacing Ricky Álvarez on 22 November 2011, a 1–1 draw with Trabzonspor.
Faraoni played five out of a possible six matches for Inter in December, all as right midfielder. The first match was his first start in his professional career, losing to Udinese 0–1 on 3 December.

Fiorentina) but he was substituted at half time in the second (v. Genoa, by Álvarez, who made a winning assist) and third matches (v. Lecce, by Cambiasso). In those 4 league appearances, Zanetti moved from right midfielder to right-back twice (against Udinese & Genoa, Maicon was injured/rested, whilst he was suspended v. Fiorentina), and as central midfielder (v. Lecce, Cambiasso on the bench); while his right wing-back competitor Nagatomo was played as a left-back to replace injured Chivu in the latter 3 matches. Faraoni missed the match against Cesena on 18 December as Zanetti and Maicon restored to their usual positions.
Despite being returned to a 'backup' role on 7 January 2012 against Parma, Faraoni came on as a substitute and scored his first ever Serie A goal, in the 77th minute. He hit a stunning volley from the edge of the area which lobbed the Parma goalkeeper and crowned a 5–0 win. On 12 January 2012, Inter announced that Faraoni had signed a new {{frac|4|1|2}}-year contract.{{cite news|url=http://www.inter.it/aas/news/reader?N=38722&L=en|title=Faraoni: at Inter until 2016|date=12 January 2012|access-date=12 January 2012|work=FC Internazionale Milano|publisher=inter.it}} A week later, Faraoni made his Italian cup debut in a 2–1 win over Genoa.{{cite news|url=http://www.inter.it/aas/news/reader?N=38798&L=en|title=Coppa Italia, Inter 2-1 Genoa: Maicon and Poli|date=19 January 2011|access-date=20 January 2011|work=FC Internazionale Milano|publisher=inter.it}}
Faraoni returned to the starting XI on 17 February, playing three successive Serie A matches. Since late January Inter had suffered from an injury crisis (Alvarez, Maicon and then Chivu twice), poor form and the departure of star player (Thiago Motta) and did not win any games with only two draws. The coach had changed the formation occasionally to fit the recovered Wesley Sneijder but there was no improvement. Faraoni had played as a right wing in 4–2–3–1 formation against Bologna (as the coach had limited choices of winger since the injury of Alvarez) and then starting right-back (due to the injuries of Maicon and Chivu, Nagatomo had to play left-back) for the first time in the 4–3–1–2 formation against Napoli. The third match saw the return of the 4–4–2 formation with Faraoni as a right midfielder. However, he was substituted for Sneijder at half time after the first half finished 0–2 against Catania. Eventually Inter 2–2 draw with Catania, their first point since January.
After the appointment of Andrea Stramaccioni, Faraoni was left out from the starting XI completely.
