Despite Inter's involvement in the FIFA Club World Cup, the transfer market never sleeps.
Indeed, the Nerazzurri could finalize the most notable sale this summer while in the United States.
Galatasaray are about to test Inter's resolve with a tangible proposal.
Inter Milan Brace for Galatasaray Opening Bid for Hakan Calhanoglu
MILAN, ITALY – MARCH 11: Hakan Calhanoglu of FC Internazionale celebrates scoring his team's second goal during the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Round of 16 Second Leg match between FC Internazionale Milano and Feyenoord at Stadio San Siro on March 11, 2025 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by)
A year after turning down Bayern Munich, Hakan Calhanoglu is on the verge of leaving the San Siro.
Indeed, Istanbul could be his next destination, with Inter already preparing for life after the 31-year-old.
Lazio ace Nicolo Rovella tops the club's shortlist.
However, striking a deal with Biancocelesti president Claudio Lotito could prove easier said than done.
Rovella's substantial €50m release clause puts Lazio in a strong bargaining position.
Therefore, Inter will likely need to break the bank to sign the former Juventus midfielder.

Fans packing the stadium were there to see Lionel Messi, arguably the world's biggest soccer star, but were treated to see the Stanley Cup, the world's most famous trophy. Panthers Captain Sasha Barkov was seen lifting the Cup above his head, flanked by teammates Dmitry Kulikov, Evan Rodrigues, Anton Lundell and Niko Mikkola, as well as team President Matthew Caldwell.

USMNT's Christian Pulisic will be a ‘key player' for Milan next season, says sporting director
Christian Pulisic will be a 'key player' for Milan next season and discussions over a contract extension will take place, the Serie A club's sporting director Igli Tare said. The 26-year-old U.S. men's national team forward recorded 17 goals and 12 assists for Milan last season, the most fruitful season in front of goal of his career despite the club's eighth-place finish. With his existing contract set to expire in 2027, Tare, who was appointed as Milan's sporting director in May, said there will be discussions over a renewal in good time. Advertisement 'I will have the opportunity to discuss the renewal with Giorgio [Furlani, Milan chief executive officer] at the right time but right now we are only focused on the team,' Tare said at a news conference. Following Stefano Pioli's departure as head coach last summer, his immediate successor Paulo Fonseca was dismissed within six months of his appointment. His replacement, Sergio Conceicao, took charge for the remainder of the campaign but also parted ways with the club after failing to secure European football with their lowest league placing since 2015-16. Pulisic still impressed for Milan and was consistently available with 50 appearances in all competitions, his 11 league goals the highest in the squad. Tare recognised the forward's contributions and said he 'has a central role in this group'. 'I think he was one of the most positive players last season and he is one of the pillars of the season to come,' Tare added. Massimiliano Allegri was appointed as Milan's new head coach shortly after Tare's arrival. The 57-year-old previously held the position of head coach at the San Siro from 2010-2014, and won a Scudetto with the club in 2010-11. Pulisic opted to not make himself available for the USMNT's Gold Cup squad this month, and was left out by Mauricio Pochettino for the preceding friendlies against Turkey and Switzerland. ()
