Calhanoglu and His Agent Confirm Inter Permanence

Gordon Stipic, the agent of Hakan Calhanoglu, has decided to put an end to the speculations concerning the future of his client. He spoke to Turkish publication TRT (via Sky).

“There has been no summit with any club. We haven’t held talks with Fenerbahce and haven’t met with Galatasaray. The rumors are unfounded. There are many ongoing phone calls and contacts. It’s normal for that to happen, but we need a clearer and more fluid communication between the decision-makers.” “Calhanoglu will stay at Inter next season too. He’s happy in Milan. We’ll speak with the Nerazzurri after the vacations. He supported Galatasaray as a kid. Every player would like to represent their childhood team, but they didn’t make an offer. They have different projects.”

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the veteran is back in Milan and will soon speak with Christian Chivu and his teammates. While the Nerazzurri are more than happy to keep him, the coach plans to switch from 3-5-2 to 3-4-2-1, especially should they land Ademola Lookman. The hierarchies will be less rigid than under Simone Inzaghi.

Calhanoglu spoke to FCInter1908 at the airport.

“My vacations weren’t easy for many situations. I’m happy to stay and continue here. I’ve talked with Lautaro Martinez. We’re professionals, and there’s no problem. I’m ready to re-start and aim to win trophies.”

Our Take on Inter and Calhanoglu

It’s unclear why he has to do the whole song and dance every summer, as it won’t result in a new contract, but, even as the chatter intensified, their brass always seemed serene, and they never really pursued prospective replacements. It remains to be seen whether there’ll be some lingering splintering inside the locker room.
