Man United want to sign Hakan Calhanoglu
Manchester United are setting their sights on Inter Milan’s midfield maestro, Hakan Calhanoglu, as they gear up for a crucial summer transfer window. The Turkish international, known for his set-piece prowess and deep-lying playmaking ability, could be a perfect fit for Ruben Amorim’s system at Old Trafford.
Why Calhanoglu?
According to reports from Fichajes, United have identified Calhanoglu as a key target as they reshape their squad to align with Amorim’s tactical philosophy. The Portuguese manager favours a back-three system with wing-backs, a setup that thrives on a strong midfield base. Calhanoglu, a linchpin in Simone Inzaghi’s Inter Milan side, has excelled in a similar role, dictating play from deep with precision passing and tactical intelligence.
United’s midfield is set for an overhaul, with veteran duo Casemiro and Christian Eriksen likely heading for the exit. Bringing in Calhanoglu would inject both experience and technical quality into the heart of Amorim’s new-look team.
Inter’s Stance & Transfer Fee
Inter Milan view Calhanoglu as a crucial part of their plans but are reportedly open to a sale if the price is right. Earlier this year, the Nerazzurri valued him at around €45 million when Manchester City showed interest, and a similar fee could be demanded from United. Given that Inter signed him on a free transfer from AC Milan, any sale would represent pure profit—something that could be tempting amid their financial challenges.
Will United Make Their Move?
The Red Devils certainly have the financial muscle to secure Calhanoglu’s signature, but the key question remains whether they see a 31-year-old midfielder as a long-term investment. If Amorim believes he is the ideal piece to orchestrate United’s midfield, expect the club to test Inter’s resolve with a strong bid.
With a summer of change looming, United fans could soon see a new general at the base of their midfield—one with a wicked right foot and a knack for dictating games at the highest level.
