During Victor Osimhen's persuasion process, one of Galatasaray 's biggest rivals, Saudi Arabian representative Al Hilal, is now facing the red and yellows in the Hakan Çalhanoğlu transfer. The national star, who wants to transfer to Galatasaray and whose possibility of saying goodbye to Inter has increased after team captain Lautaro Martinez criticized him, continues to make headlines in the sports press in Italy. Corriere dello Sport featured Hakan in its headline yesterday with the title 'Çalhanoğlu crisis at Inter' and wrote, "Hakan Çalhanoğlu is pushing to return to Istanbul. Al-Hilal has also taken action for the Turkish player. Simone İnzaghi is trying to convince him."

ALL EYES ON THE PLAYER'S DECISION

While Galatasaray Club is trying to convince Inter, who want a transfer fee of 30 million Euros for the national player they want to transfer, the claim of the Italian press has damaged morale. Corriere dello Sport claimed that Inzaghi wants to see his former player on his team very much and that Al Hilal is preparing to offer Hakan Çalhanoğlu a 3-year contract for 20 million Euros per year.

It was also noted that the 31-year-old football player will be offered a role in the technical staff after the completion of these 3 years. It is eagerly awaited what decision Hakan Çalhanoğlu, who has stated that he is a Galatasaray supporter at almost every opportunity, will make after this move by the Saudi team.
