Bologna Vs Inter Milan – Turkey Superstar In Contention For Starting Lineups | OneFootball

Inter Milan talisman Hakan Calhanoglu could reportedly make the starting lineup in tomorrow’s Supercoppa Italiana clash against Bologna.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the 31-year-old is in contention for the starting XI.

Cristian Chivu has set his sights on winning his first managerial trophy at Inter.

However, the Nerazzurri must overcome Bologna in the semi-finals to reach the title-deciding fixture.

Furthermore, Inter will be without Denzel Dumfries and Francesco Acerbi.

On the bright side, Calhanoglu could regain his place in the starting eleven.

Calhanoglu sustained a minor muscle injury during Inter’s 1-0 home defeat to Liverpool last week.

Therefore, he skipped Sunday’s away match against Genoa.

However, Chivu has included the former AC Milan playmaker in his Supercoppa squad.

Moreover, the skilled midfielder could start Friday’s fixture in Riyadh despite earlier skepticism.

Meanwhile, Carlos Augusto missed today’s training, throwing his availability into doubt.

Finally, Matteo Darmian is still recovering from a calf problem and will likely watch the game from the sidelines.
