Calhanoglu, the new setback raises questions about the renewal

The problem with the left thigh that stopped Hakan Çalhanoğlu during the match against Udinese will also prevent him from taking the field next Saturday at the Olimpico, when Inter will face Roma in the top-of-the-table big match. According to Il Messaggero, this is yet another physical setback for the Turkish midfielder, the twenty-eighth in less than two years with the Nerazzurri shirt.

A physical fragility that is now evident, that of Çalhanoğlu, which also raises important questions in view of the contract renewal. The current agreement of the playmaker expires in June 2027 and, although sporting director Dario Baccin has confirmed the existence of talks between the parties, the frequency of injuries is an element that must be carefully considered.

The Nerazzurri club therefore finds itself once again dealing with the absence of a key player in the technical project, while reflections on the future continue.
