Inter Milan are reportedly uninterested in selling key star Hakan Calhanoglu in light of interest from Chelsea and Liverpool.
According to Calciomercato, Chelsea and Liverpool have suffered a blow in pursuing Hakan Calhanoglu. Inter Milan are reportedly uninterested in selling him. The 29-year-old playmaker has become their top performer, as Simone Inzaghi targets a Serie A title win this season.
There is a big scramble for midfielders ahead of the January transfer window, as all of the top Premier League teams are looking for one. Arsenal, the Manchester clubs, Tottenham, Chelsea and Liverpool are all keen on signing someone in the middle of the park.
With options likely to remain few and coming with a premium price tag, clubs like Chelsea have also considered signing someone very young. For instance, they wanted Gabriel Moscardo from Corinthians. But recent developments suggest they have walked away from the pursuit.
Liverpool have also seen links to many stars, such as Brazilian midfielder Andre. Recently, reports linked them with Khephren Thuram, and the Frenchman remains an option for Jurgen Klopp to consider. However, another name has come into the mix, Hakan Calhanoglu.
The 29-year-old has proven himself on the big stage after some good seasons at Inter Milan. He was instrumental in the Serie A club’s journey to the UEFA Champions League final. The Turk has continued to assert his importance under Simone Inzaghi.
Calhanoglu is a deep-lying midfielder but is also a proven goalscorer and plays well in the coveted box-to-box role. Liverpool and Chelsea are keen on the 29-year-old playmaker, but any pursuit will have complexities.
For starters, Inter Milan have no interest in selling him, especially in January. Secondly, Simone Inzaghi continues to bank on his importance and feels that Calhanoglu remains a vital part of his quest to win the Scudetto. Moreover, they do not consider his status as someone for sale midway through the season.
Hakan Calhanoglu would have been perfect for the Premier League duo, considering his experience and expertise in a top team. Liverpool and Chelsea could now look at alternatives to the 29-year-old star. Plenty of names will likely emerge in the days leading to the January transfer window.
