  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Inter are said to be asking for €40m, which may price Galatasaray out of a move. Calhanoglu would like to join the Turkish club but will have to consider other options.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  Calhanoglu made 47 appearances for Inter last season as they reached the Champions League final and finished runners-up to Napoli in Serie A. He has spent four years at Inter but could now be on the move.
