Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio recently addressed the rumors, stating: “Calhanoglu has never asked to leave, and we have never received any offers for him. He’s not on the market, and we hope to continue with him for a long time.”
However, Turkish broadcaster YS TV has reported that Fenerbahce president Ali Koç has already met with Calhanoglu to discuss the possibility of a transfer. The meeting allegedly covered salary expectations and Inter’s potential asking price.
While the move is currently seen as only an idea, the possibility cannot be ruled out. Calhanoglu’s arrival would be a major coup for Fenerbahce, both on the pitch and from a branding perspective, especially as they look to counter Galatasaray’s recent top-tier signings ahead of their Champions League return.
The 30-year-old midfielder has been a key figure at Inter since joining from city rivals Milan and played a crucial role in last season’s Scudetto run. Fenerbahce, managed by José Mourinho, sees him as a central piece for their midfield rebuild.
Whether the move materializes or not, one thing is clear – Calhanoglu’s name remains very much at the center of this summer’s transfer window.
