New voices on Hakan. The Nerazzurri do not trust after the flirtation with Galatasaray, but in the meantime they care about with the Swiss: he is the favorite if the Turk starts
This story no longer ends. But Inter are ready, you don’t get to July 20 without having a detailed action plan. And then: if that between Calhanoglu and Fenerbahce will really turn into a negotiation and will not remain hanging in the air as happened with Galatasaray, the Nerazzurri club will forcefully throw on Xhaka granit. He is the profile identified to pair with Nicolò Barella in the midfield two who has Cristian Chivu in his head, as already told at the end of last week by the Gazzetta. He is the first name to keep in mind. Not the only one, but certainly the favorite.

Everything is in the hands of Calhanoglu, it must be said. In Istanbul in the last few hours the rumors of a strong interest in him of Mourinho’s team have literally exploded, or the most bitter rivals of the Galatasaray who for a long time has (virtually) flirted with Calha, or at least with the idea of Calha. Now the Inter midfielder has entered the sights of President Ali Koc. Attention to a detail: we are in the climate of the election campaign, in September there is the election of the new president of Fenerbahce, logical that the name of Hakan somehow move the attention (and maybe even some preference). Soon, however, it will be understood if this time too we will stop at the voices or if instead it will enter the heart of a negotiation. In Istanbul they are convinced of many things. The first: a video call that would have been between Koc and President Marotta, never existed. The second: Calhanoglu would have spoken to Inter to ask to lower the sale price. Never took place even this, at least last night. Last thing: tomorrow would be the day indicated for the definitive acceleration with an offer to Inter. And on this point all that remains is to wait. After all, that’s what Inter is doing. The price of Calhanoglu has never changed: 30 million departure, with the concrete feeling that at 25 the outgoing negotiation could really be closed. But to those 25 million Fenerbahce must arrive. Because this is not the year in which Inter would possibly be willing to meet his player to deal with an exit price: Hakan has a contract until 2027, if anything in 2026 the Nerazzurri could think of granting the midfielder a privileged way out. What should be told, in this story, is another step: Inter had a contact with Gordon Stipic, Prosecutor of Calhanoglu yesterday, who, however, did not give certainties on the arrival of an offer for his client, thus fueling the usual doubts. Finally, in Istanbul they are convinced that a key element of the negotiation may be José Mourinho, already a decisive result in the negotiation that brought the left -handed exterior Brown to Turkey to the disadvantage of Milan.
Granit on all

Inter are between annoying and the surprised, around these new voices. But the Nerazzurri club is not found unprepared. So much so that it is true that the managers have already made contact with the possible successor of the Turkish. We are in the first steps, moreover it cannot be otherwise given the state of the art around Hakan. The name they have in mind is that of Xhaka, 32 -year -old from Bayer Leverkusen. The Swiss is not convinced that he accepted the proposal of the Neom, Arabic Club, for family reasons. And at the moment the Sunderland proposal, which would have ready 8 million pounds for the midfielder’s card, is not taking off. Inter informed itself, through the help of a mediator. And he would find fertile ground. Attention to the timing, which risk being decisive: Xhaka, moreover, does not wait forever. Indeed, in Germany there are those who say that the Swiss are seriously taking into consideration the idea of staying in Germany. Possible alternatives? Ederson, in consideration of the standing negotiation for Lookman, must be removed from the deck. It does not convince too much Palhinha of Bayern, in Italy there are not many approaching profiles. It was not injured and out throughout the summer, it would not be wrong to return to approaching the Mateo Kovacic to Inter, which has always been a ball of the DS Ausilio, who, however, heard it in the days of the Sucic deal. Here, the 21 -year -old is considered a true owner to focus on. And this also should be considered in the event of a farewell of Calhanoglu. That between Tuesday and Wednesday is expected in Milan to return to training. In any case, it will be hot days.
