Inter Milan are bracing for the possibility that Hakan Calhanoglu could leave this summer.
The Nerazzurri know full well that Galatasaray are keen to sign the 31-year-old. And they are just waiting to see if the Turkish champions make an offer.
Therefore, in the meantime, Inter are planning for the possibility of a future without Calhanoglu.

According to Italian broadcaster SportMediaset, Inter's top target to replace Calhanoglu would be Atalanta midfielder Ederson.
The 25-year-old would cost around €40 million, the broadcaster anticipates.

Meanwhile, Inter would face competition from Derby d'Italia rivals Juventus to sign Ederson.
Then, reports Mediaset, there are two Italian internationals on the shortlist behind the Brazilian.
Lazio midfielder Nicolo Rovella is a player Inter see as capable of replacing Calhanoglu. The 23-year-old has a release clause of €50 million in his contract with the Biancocelesti.
Meanwhile, Mediaset anticipate, Torino's Samuele Ricci is another player Inter could target to replace Calhanoglu.
AC Milan had seemingly been close to a deal for Ricci. However, that has not materialized as their interest appears to fade away.

Tennis star Sinner releases duet with Italian tenor Bocelli
Tennis star Jannik Sinner has turned his hand to music releasing a duet on Friday with the renowned Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli. The song, "Polvere e Gloria" (Dust And Glory), features three-time Grand Slam champion Sinner, not singing but repeating parts of his winning and losing speeches, which he recorded at Bocelli's studio in Tuscany. Advertisement "I am very happy and honoured to be part of this project with Andrea, who for 30 years has been a unique and extraordinary voice, a flag for our country in the rest of the world," said world number one Sinner. "I could never have imagined hearing my voice in one of his songs. It's extremely moving." Sinner won the US Open in 2024 and the Australian Open in 2024 and 2025, among 19 ATP titles. He finished runner-up in the French Open on clay at Roland Garros this month. The track features both Italian and English lyrics. The accompanying video shows Sinner and Bocelli, two of the most famous Italians in the world, in a bucolic countryside setting, seated at a piano. Advertisement The video features personal and archive images from the duo's childhoods, along with scenes filmed as they collaborated at Bocelli's estate. While Bocelli, 66, has performed at major events including the Olympic Games and the World Cup, Sinner is the first Italian to top either the men's or women's singles world rankings in tennis. His image as a national hero in Italy, however, was tarnished by a high-profile doping scandal involving accidental contamination, which, after a lengthy series of events, earned him a three-month suspension between February and May. Since his return, Sinner, 23, has reached the finals of the Masters 1000 in Rome and the French Open, losing both times to his great rival Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz. On Thursday, he was defeated in the second round of the grass-court tournament in Halle, Germany, by Kazakh Alexander Bublik, ranked 45th in the world. jr/ea/bsp
