Calhanoglu's story has been among the major talking points this summer.
Indeed, the Turkey captain has set his heart on joining the Istanbul outfit despite Inter's reluctance to sell.
However, the player's wish has changed Nerazzurri's mind.
As such, they're willing to listen to offers for the ex-AC Milan midfielder.

Though negotiations have yet to start, this is a statement of intent.
Inter's deadline has forced Galatasaray's hand, yet they have yet to present the Nerazzurri with a tangible offer.
Meanwhile, Inter's stance is clear. They won't let Hakan Calhanoglu leave for less than €25 million.
On the other hand, many reports suggest Galatasaray won't go beyond €15m, hence the skepticism surrounding the deal.
Given Inter's interest in Atalanta ace Ederson, a discount is an unlikely option.

Turkish Regulator Expands Scope of Retail Loan Restructuring
Turkey's banking regulator allowed more citizens to restructure debt as tight monetary policy hurts low-income households dependent on card spending. Retail credit card debt and consumer loans may be restructured with a period of as long as 48 months, the Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency said in a statement late Friday. Citizens who failed to make periodic payments toward their card debt and those unable to repay the principal or interest on consumer loans can benefit from debt restructuring. People who previously have restructured debt are also eligible, according to the statement.

Fenerbahce table offer for Kyle Walker
Fenerbahce have submitted an offer to sign Kyle Walker, according to Turkish journalist Yagiz Sabuncuoglu. Walker is set to leave Manchester City after eight years, despite claiming earlier this year that his time at the Etihad Stadium might not be over. Advertisement The England international, whose City contract runs until 2026, spent the second half of last season on loan with Serie A giants AC Milan, who opted against making his move permanent. 'When you come to say goodbye, it's hard,' he said via the Kyle Walker Podcast. 'After I said my goodbyes, Pep got up and spoke and said a really nice message to me, just saying thank you for everything. 'But listen, it's not over, I'm just on loan here. I've got to take into consideration that I can go back. 'Obviously, both parties need to come to an agreement by the end of the season. Listen, the chapter's not fully closed, but we'll see what happens.' Advertisement While he remains a target for Saudi Pro League clubs, Walker could be set to continue his career in Europe, with Fenerbahce now plotting a move to sign him. Off the back of four consecutive second-place finishes, the Yellow Canaries are eager to pip city rivals Galatasaray to domestic glory and are targeting some major acquisitions this summer. A move to Istanbul would allow Walker to play under Jose Mourinho, a manager he is familiar with after multiple encounters in English football. Fenerbahce are also eyeing a move for Dusan Vlahovic to replace Edin Dzeko, although his financial demands could prove to be a stumbling block. They have also been linked with a move for free agent Jonathan David, but will have to fend off competition from several clubs.
