Inter’s asking price remains unchanged. Indeed, they’ve slapped a €30 million price tag on their sought-after midfielder.

Galatasaray already made it clear that they won’t meet Inter’s demands.

However, Fenerbahce are reportedly ready to test Inter’s resolve with a €20 million bid.

While the offer falls short of Inter’s valuation, it could serve as a potential starting point for negotiations.

Calhanoglu’s seal of approval could be a game-changer.

Indeed, it would put pressure on Inter to sanction a deal, handing Fenerbahce a decisive boost.

Meanwhile, the Italians have already found several potential replacements, including Morten Frendrup.
