Today's Inter Milan Daily Headlines
Al-Nassr keenly eyeing Hakan Calhanoglu
Inter remain firm on €35–€40 million valuation
Mehdi Taremi likely to stay, but no concrete offers yet
Pursuit of Gianluigi Donnarumma heating up
Calhanoglu's future teeters on transfer speculation as Al-Nassr circles; meanwhile, Inter are strategically exploring fresh talent acquisitions.
Transfer Watch
Amidst intense speculation, Al-Nassr have shown interest in Inter Milan's Hakan Calhanoglu, though the club maintains a firm valuation of €35 to €40 million. Inter are not in a rush to offload the Turkish international, who remains integral to their midfield with his demand set on increased wages. As Inter explore new options, securing his talents appears increasingly strategic with tough fixtures coming up.
In another development, despite sporting significant interest from clubs globally, Mehdi Taremi remains without firm offers. While Flamengo's recent ambitious offer failed to entice the player, Taremi and Inter both appear patient, exploring European opportunities with an eye on either Serie A or Premier League competitions.
Squad Insight
With few weeks until the domestic season kick-off, Inter's squad manoeuvring continues to make headlines. Koni De Winter emerges as a priority transfer target with the club aiming to bolster its defensive line. Discussions with Genoa are progressing, and De Winter could reinforce Inter's defensive depth amidst potential upcoming fixtures against strong Serie A competitors.
Inter's search extends beyond its borders as Gianluigi Donnarumma is eyed by top European clubs, including Inter. His unresolved future at PSG could pave the way for a strategic acquisition, particularly if terms align with Inter's financial framework.

Bears LB Noah Sewell discussed goal-line stop vs. Dolphins
Early in Sunday's preseason matchup against the Miami Dolphins, Chicago Bears linebacker Noah Sewell, competing for a starting job, made a statement with his play. In the first quarter, as the Dolphins were threatening at the goal line and knocking on the door of scoring a touchdown, Sewell fired through the gap on fourth down and logged a tackle for loss, forcing a turnover on downs. Sewell's play kept the game scoreless early on and put an emphasis on his performance as he competes for the third linebacker spot alongside veterans T.J. Edwards and Tremaine Edmunds. Ending the game with six total tackles, Sewell's one tackle for loss came in one of the most crucial moments in the early stages of the game as he slammed the door on Miami's offense. Following the game, Sewell discussed his goal line stop and how the defense's mentality helped prepare him for that moment. "I knew what kind of situation we were in," Sewell said, via Bears on CHSN. "I was like somebody has to step up, why can't it be me? I just saw the gap open up and I shot my shot. After that play happened I just blacked out and celebrated, everyone was telling me good play, and then I remembered that it was a fourth down stop. Day in and day out, we attack the day the same. Physicality is highly preached in our defensive room so I just try to uphold that." Sewell's performance should give him an upper hand in the battle for the third linebacker spot early in preseason, and his development could be a fun surprise throughout this season.

Donnarumma ‘disappointed and disheartened' at PSG Super Cup squad omission
Gianluigi Donnarumma has been left 'disappointed and disheartened' at Luis Enrique's decision to push the Paris St Germain goalkeeper towards the exit door. Italy international Donnarumma was an eye-catching omission from PSG's Super Cup squad for Wednesday's fixture with Tottenham in his home country. Big-money summer arrival Lucas Chevalier has been included and is set to make his PSG debut at Stadio Friuli after Luis Enrique confirmed he wanted a goalkeeper profile that was 'different' to Donnarumma. Italy captain Donnarumma has since taken to Instagram to criticise the decision and expressed his desire to say goodbye 'in the eyes one more time' to the PSG supporters at Parc des Princes. 'To the special Paris fans, from the first day I arrived, I gave everything – on and off the pitch – to earn my place and defend the goal of Paris Saint-Germain,' Donnarumma said. 'Unfortunately, someone has decided that I can no longer be part of the group and contribute to the team's success, I am disappointed and disheartened. 'I hope to have the opportunity to look the fans at the Parc des Princes in the eyes one more time and say goodbye as it should be done. 'If that doesn't happen, I want you to know that your support and affection mean the world to me and I will never forget it. I will always carry with me the memory of all the emotions, the magical nights and of you, who made me feel at home. 'To my team-mates – my second family – thank you for every battle, every laugh, every moment we shared. You will always be my brothers. 'Playing for this club and living in this city has been an immense honour. Thank you, Paris.' Luis Enrique explained his decision in Udine, he said: 'These are always difficult decisions to make. 'I can definitely talk about Gigio, because he's one of the best players in his position, without a doubt. He's even better as a person. 'We're looking for a goalkeeping profile that is different to Donnarumma. It's always difficult to make the decision in these kinds of situations.' Luis Enrique also revealed Tottenham were once an option for him and admitted they have a physical advantage on Wednesday. The 55-year-old was linked with the vacancy at Spurs after Antonio Conte left in 2023, but Ange Postecoglou was eventually hired and Luis Enrique subsequently took over PSG in a sliding doors moment for both men. Postecoglou was able to mastermind Europa League success in May and end Tottenham's 17-year trophy drought, whilst Luis Enrique guided PSG to the holy grail of a maiden Champions League title. The pair will not face each other in Italy after Spurs ruthlessly discarded with Postecoglou following a poor domestic campaign and the appointment of Thomas Frank – alongside the fact they have been in pre-season training since early July, while PSG only returned last Wednesday after their Club World Cup exploits – gives the English outfit a slight edge according to Luis Enrique. 'Well, I have to say that it is difficult because they change recently the manager, new manager, some new players, they play a few friendly matches before tomorrow's match and I don't know what kind of game they are going to plan,' Luis Enrique acknowledged. 'It is going to be difficult because they have been training for the last month and we are in our first week, but it is not an excuse. 'We are going to try to compete at our best.' On Spurs' links, Luis Enrique added: 'Well, there were some options for me in the last six months before I came to Paris and Tottenham was one of them.'

Fabrizio Romano confirms Liverpool's next step to sign Alexander Isak
Liverpool's pursuit for Alexander Isak continues and Fabrizio Romano has the latest. This has been a successful window for the Reds. However, one deal has dominated the headlines and has continued to drag on for Liverpool. 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the away range TODAY LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! The club's dream target has always been Alexander Isak. This is the player Liverpool have identified as the perfect next step to lead Arne Slot's evolution at Anfield. At 25-years-old, Isak is in the prime of his life. He's a proven goal-scorer who can take Liverpool to an even higher level than last season. This is why Liverpool have been so keen on signing him. And it's also why Newcastle United have been so reluctant to sell him. They know the asset they are holding is a special one. However, it's becoming increasingly likely that they cannot hold on to him forever. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas away range This has been made clear by The Athletic, who report that Isak has made his intentions clear to never play for Newcastle again, even if he stays at the club this summer. Isak has been training separately from the rest of his teammates on Tyneside and it's clear he wants the move to Liverpool. Newcastle remain reluctant to facilitate this. They have struggled to find replacements for the Swedish talisman and they are yet to accept his departure from the club. The more Isak pushes, the more that acceptance will come. It's already looking like an untenable situation for Newcastle. They simply cannot keep a player who is so dissatisfied with staying at the club.
