Hakan Calhanoglu has asked Inter Milan to negotiate a sale to Galatasaray
According to reports from Turkish media, via FCInter1908, the 31-year-old midfielder has requested that the Nerazzurri lower their asking price so that the move can happen.
Hakan Calhanoglu has been at the centre of a lot of speculation over the last few weeks.
The 31-year-old is reportedly a target for Turkish champions Galatasaray.
There is talk of the Istanbul giants having already sounded out a move with Calhanoglu’s representatives.
Then, there would of course be the question of Inter’s demands on a fee.
Reportedly, the Nerazzurri want at least €30-35 million to sell Calhanoglu. And that would be higher than Galatasaray want to pay for the former AC Milan midfielder.
According to reports from Turkish media, however, Calhanoglu has gone to the Inter hierarchy.
The 31-year-old has expressed his desire to join Galatasaray. And he has asked that the Nerazzurri be willing to negotiate with the Istanbul-based club.
The reports claim that Hakan Calhanoglu has reminded Inter that he signed on a free transfer four years ago.
Therefore, the Turkish international wants Inter to meet Galatasaray halfway.
If the Nerazzurri were to lower their asking price somewhat, it would put a deal within reach.
