Inter Milan Closes Doors to Offers for Hakan Calhanoglu and Prepares to Keep Him in the Squad
In the midst of the summer transfer market, Inter Milan is closing any doors to offers for Turkish midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu, who has become a key and irreplaceable player in the Nerazzurri squad. The 32-year-old Turkey international shone brightly by scoring two decisive goals in the epic comeback against Como in the Coppa Italia semi-final, securing Inter’s place in the final with an aggregate score of 3-2.
According to the prestigious Italian publication La Gazzetta dello Sport, Calhanoglu is a vital component in Milan’s midfield, even with his contract set to expire in June 2027. Technical director Cristian Chivu reinforced this view by labeling the midfielder as irreplaceable, assuring that his desire to keep the player will be fulfilled without hesitation.
It is worth noting that, despite Galatasaray’s declared interest last year and public tensions with Lautaro Martínez, Calhanoglu chose to remain in Italy, demonstrating commitment to Inter. Currently, the renewal of his contract, which guarantees him a net salary of €6.5 million, is not on the table, with negotiations expected to take place after the transfer market closes, unless unforeseen events arise that alter this situation.
The decision by Inter not only demonstrates confidence in the experience and quality of the Turkish midfielder but also underscores the club’s ambition to maintain a solid foundation to tackle the competitions of the upcoming season. Calhanoglu, with his ability to change games and influence the offensive play, is clearly a player that Inter is not willing to lose. The upcoming season promises to be decisive for the future of both the player and the club, in a battle where talent and strategy will dictate the course of the nerazzurri.
