Turkey Captain Embarks On Redemption Mission At Inter Milan After Losing Club Trust
According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the 31-year-old has to make amends for his recent off-field controversies.
Trust is a fragile commodity.
However, Hakan Calhanoglu may need to learn this the hard way.
After Fenerbahce and Galatasaray failed to lure him to Istanbul, the Turk returns to San Siro to regain Inter's confidence.
Hakan Calhanoglu Facing Uphill Battle to Win Back Inter Milan Trust
MILAN, ITALY – MARCH 11: Hakan Calhanoglu of FC Internazionale celebrates scoring his team's second goal during the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Round of 16 Second Leg match between FC Internazionale Milano and Feyenoord at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on March 11, 2025 in Milan, Italy.

Calhanoglu is no longer a popular figure at Inter.
Despite his undeniable quality, the deep-lying playmaker faces skepticism from teammates and fans alike.
Lautaro Martinez was vocal about his frustration after Inter's 2025 FIFA Club World Cup exit in June.
Furthermore, Beppe Marotta joined El Toro in his post-Fluminenese rant, pointing a finger at Calhanoglu.
Therefore, the Turkish star must work hard to rebuild relationships in the locker room.
Then, he must prove he deserves to wear the Nerazzurri shirt again.
It's an uphill battle, but Calhanoglu has no one to blame but himself for being in such a hard spot.

England celebrates 'chaotic and ridiculous' Euro 2025 win
Fans across the country erupted as the Lionesses completed their third successive comeback to defend their European crown with a 3-1 penalty shootout victory over Spain in Basel. Substitute Chloe Kelly, whose extra-time winner at Wembley secured the Lionesses their first major trophy three summers ago, was once again the hero, coolly converting in the shootout with the World Cup holders following a 1-1 extra-time stalemate. Wiegman has now led teams - first the Netherlands, now England - to the trophy at the last three European Championships, though none, admitted the Dutchwoman, was more 'chaotic' and 'ridiculous' as this.

Lacked cutting edge... Inter set record for shots but only manage a draw
Internacional had volume, but failed to turn it into a win against Vasco on Sunday (27). According to Opta data, Colorado finished 27 times, its highest mark in the tournament since August 2016, when they attempted 30 shots in a match against São Paulo. Was the insistence worth it? Not really. Despite the high number of attempts, Inter scored only one goal. Most of the shots came from outside the box or in unfavorable conditions. There was a lack of precision in the choices and efficiency in the execution. The draw frustrates the fans, mainly due to the dominance on the field and the revived offensive history after almost nine years. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
