Spence and Calhanoglu to Return Against Parma, But Won't Start

Calhanoglu and Spence are expected to be called up for the October 10th match against Parma. This will be Spence's first appearance at San Siro and his first time available to Cristian Chivu. Calhanoglu returns after a minor but bothersome injury. The coach is in no rush and wants the players fully recovered. Match fitness comes from playing time, but starting doesn't automatically mean readiness, nor does coming on as a substitute mean ongoing issues. Chivu aims for them to be 100% fit and will use them as substitutes against Parma, not from the start. Calhanoglu is central to Inter's play, while Spence has yet to play a match with his teammates. Both players will have other opportunities to secure a starting spot, though for different reasons. Calhanoglu, already familiar with the team's tactics, could be back in the starting lineup as early as October, potentially in the Champions League match against Stankovic's former club. Spence, who missed his preparation, will likely start at the Meazza against the Ukrainian team on October 21st. Chivu remains patient, recognizing that Diouf, Zielinski, and Stankovic are formidable opponents.
