Inter Milan CEO Beppe Marotta Did Not Hold Transfer Negotiations With Fenerbahce For Midfielder But Breakthrough Could Soon Be Made
Suggestions that Inter Milan CEO Beppe Marotta held a video call to negotiate the sale of Hakan Calhanoglu with Fenerbahce president Ali Koc are thought to be wide of the mark. As reported in today's newspaper edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport, and via Marotta did not hold a conference with Koc in an effort to secure the sale of the Turkish midfielder, but progress on a deal could be made this week. Similarly, the newspaper denies reports that the player himself has personally asked Inter to lower their demands of €30 million for him, with Fenerbahce currently only bidding €20m. Indeed, La Gazzetta dello Sport urged caution due to ongoing presidential elections at Fenerbahce and the publicity that securing a star player like Calhanoglu would bring to a successful candidate. However, the Milan-based outlet confirmed that Marotta's team met with Calhanoglu's agent, Gordon Stipic, on Saturday and talks with Fenerbahce could move forward this week. It is expected that whilst Inter are keen to hold out for €30m for the ex-AC Milan man, it is likely that the two clubs will meet in the middle for a €25m fee.
