Lucas Da Cunha has emerged as a potential target for Inter Milan amid talks Hakan Calhanoglu could depart San Siro.

Per Tuttosposrt via FCInter1908, the Como playmaker is the latest name on Beppe Marotta’s shortlist.

Hakan Calhanoglu looks closer to severing ties with the Nerazzurri that stay in Serie A.

Indeed, the 31-year-old is keen to join Galatasaray, though the Turks must meet Inter’s asking price.

Therefore, it’ll take around €30 million to lure the ex-AC Milan midfielder away from Giuseppe Meazza.

Nicolo Rovella would be a dream signing for Inter. However, his €50m release clause threatens to blow the Nerazzurri out of the water.

Meanwhile, Da Cunha would be a more affordable option for Cristian Chivu’s side.

The 24-year-old would’ve been among the club’s top targets had Cesc Fabregas accepted Inter’s proposal.

Yet, the Spaniard has decided to stay at Como.

Fabregas launched Da Cunha’s Serie A career and won’t let him go without a fight.

Indeed, Da Cunha played a crucial role in Como’s superb first season in the top flight in over 20 years.

Therefore, taking him away from Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia won’t be simple.
