Selling just Hakan Calhanoglu will not be enough for Inter Milan to afford a move for Atalanta midfielder Ederson.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews.

Inter Milan are bracing for the possible exit of midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu.

The Turkish international is a target for Galatasaray. And if he is to personally push for the move, then the Nerazzurri won’t stand in his way.

If Calhanoglu brings a sufficient offer to Inter, they will sell the Turkish international.

Tuttosport report that, while Inter will hardly sell Calhanoglu for Galatasaray’s opening bid of €a5 million, they would likely be willing make a deal for around €25 million if it’s what the player asks for.

Not Just Hakan Calhanoglu – Inter Milan Need More Sales To Afford Atalanta Midfielder Ederson

If Inter Milan are to sell Calhanoglu, they’ll obviously move to replace the 31-year-old.

Tuttosport report that Atalanta midfielder Ederson would be Inter’s top target in this respect.

However, the 25-year-old will not come cheap. Atalanta are reportedly seeking a fee of around €50 million for him.

Of course, the fee for Calhanoglu could go part of the way towards a deal for Ederson. But it would not cover the full amount.

Therefore, Inter will be looking to offload other players – such as Kristjan Asllani, Yann Bisseck, and Mehdi Taremi – to afford a deal for Ederson.

Meanwhile, Tuttosport reports, Inter’s backup target for replacing Calhanoglu would be Angelo Stiller, Morten Hjulmand, and Morten Frendrup.
