Revealed – How Turkey Midfielder’s Injury Could Change Inter Milan Transfer Strategy In January | OneFootball

Inter Milan could reportedly change their transfer plans in January after losing Hakan Calhanoglu to injury.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInter1908, the 31-year-old’s absence will inevitably affect the club’s strategy in the winter transfer window.

Hakan Calhanoglu has been one of the most influential players in Cristian Chivu’s setup this season.

Indeed, the former AC Milan midfielder has emerged as Serie A’s most prolific midfielder, having netted seven goals in 16 games.

However, he could be out for at least one month, leaving Chivu short of options in the middle of the park.

Davide Frattesi seemed to be on the verge of ending his San Siro misery.

Indeed, Inter and Galatasaray had been discussing his switch to Istanbul for weeks.

Yet, the Turkish side’s unwillingness to meet Inter’s €35 million asking price has brought negotiations to a standstill.

Now, Inter could stop Frattesi’s sale to avoid further weakening their midfield.
