Report – Atalanta & Como Stars Join Lazio Ace On Inter Milan Shortlist Of Calhanoglu Replacements
Atalanta's Ederson and Como's Lucas Da Cunha have joined Nicolo Rovella on Inter Milan's shortlist of targets to replace Hakan Calhanoglu. This according to today's print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews. Advertisement Inter Milan are awaiting offers for Hakan Calhanoglu this summer. The Nerazzurri are well aware that the 31-year-old is a priority target for Galatasaray. Meanwhile, clubs in the Saudi Pro League are also reportedly taking note. Moreover, Tuttosport anticipate, Inter do not consider Calhanoglu to be 'unsellable.' The Turk earns €6.5 million net per season on a contract until the end of June 2027. Therefore, if Inter were to sell him it would save them approximately €26 million in gross wages. As such, Inter will definitely listen to offers as they contemplate rebuilding their midfield.

Advertisement And as Tuttosport note, there are a few players on the Nerazzurri's shortlist of potential targets. It is no secret that Inter are eyeing up a move for Lazio midfielder Nicolo Rovella. He would constitute a relatively like-for-like replacement for Calhanoglu. However, Tuttosport report, there are also a couple of other midfielders from within Serie A who Inter could move for if Calhanoglu leaves.
