Hakan Calhanoglu will be unavailable for Cristian Chivu's squad in Roma-Inter. Recent medical tests revealed a muscle strain in his right thigh's adductor, ruling him out of Saturday's crucial match. The Turkish midfielder's injury history is well-documented; he has missed numerous games due to physical issues, and Roma-Inter marks his 32nd absence since the 2024-25 season. Despite these recurring setbacks and persistent rumors of a potential departure each transfer window, Calha remains a vital player for Chivu's Inter.
He continues to be a technical leader on the field, making a tangible difference when playing. Can these injuries influence the club's future plans? Inter has initiated discussions with Calhanoglu's representatives regarding a contract renewal, as his current deal expires next June. However, his continued presence in Milan is far from certain.
Alongside the management's efforts, the player must demonstrate willingness to accept a salary reduction from his current €6.5 million net per season. Furthermore, considering the uncertainty surrounding his fitness, a contract extension beyond one or two years appears unlikely. The situation remains fluid, and Calhanoglu's renewal will be a significant storyline for Inter throughout the season.
