Return to homeland nears. Hakan Çalhanoğlu could join Galatasaray
The likelihood of Hakan Çalhanoğlu leaving Inter this summer is very high. The 31-year-old Turkish midfielder, who is currently recovering from injury, is under contract with the Milan club until June 2027, but his future appears to be increasingly distant from the Nerazzurri.
Details: According to Rudy Galetti, even though Inter are open to discussing a possible contract extension, Çalhanoğlu himself is not interested in prolonging his stay and is unlikely to change his stance. The player is clearly focused on returning to Turkey, where he wants to continue his career with Galatasaray, viewing this move as the next crucial step in his journey.
Talks between Çalhanoğlu and the Istanbul club have been ongoing for several months, and reports suggest there should be no issues regarding personal terms. The key factor remains the negotiations between Galatasaray and Inter, but compared to last summer, the Milan side are expected to be more flexible.
Given that the player's contract runs until 2027, Inter do not want to risk losing him on a free transfer. For this reason, a summer move could be the best solution for all parties involved.
Reminder: Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva has started talks with Galatasaray.
