Another, yet another muscle injury for Hakan Calhanoglu. Cristian Chivu had left him to rest during Torino-Inter, fielding a midfield three made up of Barella, Zielinski, and Sucic. Then, in the post-match interview, he spoke about some aches and pains that had affected the squad. However, the news is serious, as the Turk risks missing the final part of the season, including the Coppa Italia final, to return in time for the summer World Cup.
The problem is believed to be with the soleus muscle, according to Sky Sport. It is a muscle that must be treated with extreme caution for any athlete, even more so for someone who has already had several muscle issues. While waiting for the official statement from Inter, which could arrive today, a new long layoff looms on the horizon for Calhanoglu.
