Inter Getting Prepared Should Star Midfielder Want Out
Hakan Calhanoglu is reflecting on his Inter future following the departure of Simone Inzaghi. Like the coach, he has large offers from Saudi Arabia, and he hasn't outright rejected them, Mediaset informs. The Turk renewed his contract two years ago, and it expires in 2027. He's one of the highest-paid players in the squad. The Nerazzurri management will leave the decision up to him. Considering his age and the fact that he joined as a free agent, his sale would generate an unexpectedly big 'plusvalenza'. On the other hand, they'd have to find a worthy replacement. Advertisement While Calhanoglu is pondering whether to leave Italy after eight years, Inter don't want to be unprepared and have kicked the tires on Nicolò Rovella. Their front office holds him in high regard, but Lazio have rebuffed every suitor since they signed him from Juventus. He has a €50M release clause in his contract. The midfielder's desires will be decisive in this case too. The Biancocelesti president Claudio Lotito quickly shot down the chatter when he was recently linked to Milan, stating that he wasn't for sale. Our Take on Inter, Calhanoglu, and Rovella The exit buzz is a yearly recurrence for the Turk, but he can perform at a high level for several more seasons in his role and with his traits, as he's not leaning much on physicality. The Nerazzurri would lose more technically than they would gain economically. It'd eventually be tough to convince Lazio. They can always move on from Kristjan Asllani, who hasn't made the leap, but it'll be telling about the star's future if they start to make waves for easier targets like Samuele Ricci or Adrian Bernabé.

🚨 No visa, no paradise: Ayrton Costa misses the Club World Cup
Ayrton Costa misses the Club World Cup, according to reports from 'Ole' or César Luis Merlo. Boca Juniors tried until the end, but the United States Embassy informed the player that he will not be granted a visa and will not be able to enter the country. Costa has been denied the trip to the USA due to his criminal record, and while he was a player for Independiente in 2023, he already suffered a similar ban. Advertisement His record shows a prosecution for theft, a case that was resolved through probation in 2018. In addition, the player was charged in an investigation for alleged cover-up in a femicide case, in which his brother is the main suspect. Because of these precedents, the defender was unable to board the plane that took the "xeneize" squad to the United States last Sunday and will not do so now.

De Bruyne signs with Serie A champion Napoli after 10 seasons at Man City
NAPLES, Italy (AP) — Two-time Premier League player of the season Kevin De Bruyne signed as a free agent with Serie A champion Napoli on Thursday. 'KING KEV IS HERE,' Napoli declared in a series of posts on X. Advertisement The 33-year-old De Bruyne's contract at Manchester City expired. Napoli did not announce the length of his new contract. Around 150 fans welcomed De Bruyne on his arrival at a clinic in Rome for his medical. They chanted his name before also singing about Napoli being champion after the player had gone into the facility. At Napoli, De Bruyne will reunite with Belgium teammate Romelu Lukaku. And follow in the footsteps of former Napoli great Dries Mertens, an ex-Belgium international. In Napoli's midfield, De Bruyne can team with Serie A player of the year Scott McTominay, who made a highly successful move from Manchester United. Advertisement Known as one of soccer's most complete midfielders, De Bruyne was named the best player in the Premier League for the 2019-2020 and 2021-22 seasons. In 10 seasons at City, he helped the English club to six Premier League titles, two FA Cups and a Champions League trophy. The addition of De Bruyne may have been one of the reasons that convinced Napoli coach Antonio Conte to stay on for another season after considering rejoining Juventus. ___ AP soccer: The Associated Press
