Inter Milan star Hakan Calhanoglu is likely to miss Sunday’s Serie A away clash against Genoa due to injury.
According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInter1908, Cristian Chivu must find a reliable alternative to the Turkish playmaker.
Hakan Calhanoglu suffered a muscle injury during yesterday’s 1-0 home defeat to Liverpool.
Indeed, the 31-year-old had to come off after only 11 minutes, surrendering his place to Piotr Zielinski.
Whether the Polish midfielder will fill Calhanoglu’s shoes at Stadio Luigi Ferraris remains uncertain.
Cristian Chivu Faces Huge Midfield Decision Ahead of Genoa vs Inter Milan Clash
With Henrikh Mkhitaryan back from injury, he is expected to join Nicolo Barella in the middle of the park.
However, Chivu must choose a dependable replacement for Calhanoglu.
Zielinski has built a strong case for himself after returning to form, though his performance against Liverpool failed to impress.
Therefore, Petar Sucic will stake his claim for a starting spot as Chivu weighs his options.
Meanwhile, Calhanoglu will try to recover for Inter’s upcoming Supercoppa Italiana clash against Bologna.
Referee’s today do not take the important decisions. They have all been demoted and now are there to do as told by VAR. Not one referee has ever disagreed with VAR once called to the TV screen. We need to give them a new name and there fees should also be reduced.
