Inter Milan manager Cristian Chivu is reportedly considering a significant midfield adjustment as Piotr Zielinski rediscovers his top form.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInter1908, the Nerazzurri could play with two playmakers from now on.
Hakan Calhanoglu has been Inter’s deep-lying playmaker for years, nailing down the role as his own.
Indeed, the 31-year-old Turkish star has been phenomenal since joining the club from AC Milan in 2021.
Furthermore, Simone Inzaghi’s decision to deploy him deeper in midfield has allowed Calhanoglu to dictate play with greater control

Despite Calhanoglu’s consistency, Inter could add another playmaker to their starting lineup.
It’s none other than Zielinski.
Following a dreadful first season at San Siro, Zielinski has hit the ground running under Cristian Chivu.
Indeed, the Polish midfielder has been in scintillating form this term, leapfrogging Henrikh Mkhitaryan in the pecking order.
Moreover, Zielinski’s playmaking skills and technical prowess are well-documented.
Therefore, he can perfectly co-exist with Calhanoglu on the pitch, offering Inter more creativity and fluidity in the final third.
