Inter makes a new move for Hakan Çalhanoğlu

Inter, which is targeting the Serie A title, is preparing to determine the future of the team's key midfielder, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, at the club. It is stated that the Milan-based team will intensify new contract negotiations for Hakan, whose name has also been linked with Galatasaray recently, starting from the first months of the year.

The 31-year-old national footballer, who currently has a contract with Inter until 2027, is on the agenda for a contract extension until 2029. It is reported that communication between club officials and the player's agent, Gordon Stipic, has increased, and that the formalization of the agreement has been left until after January. The Inter management aims to manage this process meticulously to maintain the salary balance within the team.

According to club sources, the most prominent issue in the negotiations will be economic conditions. For Hakan, who is among the highest-paid players with an annual income of 6.5 million Euros after team captain Lautaro Martinez, the management is cautious about a salary increase. The Milan team's plan is to extend the duration of the contract while maintaining the current salary level.

On the other hand, the experienced footballer will turn 32 in February. For this reason, it is stated that the club will prioritize economic stability in its contract offer.

It is emphasized that Inter's technical management considers Hakan Çalhanoğlu not only as a cornerstone of today's success but also for the coming years. Drawing attention with his leadership in midfield, Hakan has recorded 7 goals and 3 assists in the 19 matches he has played this season.

The situation of the national player and the details of the new contract to be made will become clear in the coming days.
