Former Inter Milan chief exec Ernesto Paolillo has likened Hakan Calhanoglu to Nerazzurri legend Luisito Suarez.

Paolillo admits he's a big fan of the Turkey midfielder.

He told l'Interista: "More than anything else, I thought about... Suarez! He reminded me of him in certain actions. One thing in particular about him struck me.

"He was the absolute protagonist on the pitch, always making himself available. However, this was despite his suffocating marking: he is good at finding his position on the pitch."

Paolillo also said of coach Simone Inzaghi: "He too has matured and grown a lot, yes. He needed to gain experience, he deserves the Scudetto. I'm sure that by winning he he will become a truly great coach."
