AC Milan receive official offer for Calhanoglu

AC Milan winger Hakan Calhanoglu could leave in January with German club RB Leipzig ready to bring him back to Bundesliga.

AC Milan and fans hope that the season of Hakan Calhanoglu can improve in the second part just as it happened last year. The problem is that there is a high risk that the Turkish number 10 will not play the second part of the season with the Rossoneri jersey. In fact, for some time there have been strong rumors that Calhanoglu is no longer among the untouchables of the club. The club could sacrifice the 24 year old winger because of his recent disappointing performances.

Rumors have intensified in the last few hours about a possible return in Bundesliga, a league where he literally exploded first with Hamburg and then with Bayer Leverkusen. In fact, according to what Tuttomercatoweb, Milan would have received a concrete offer from RB Leipzig. The Germans are currently in fourth place in the league and are among the richest clubs thanks to their well-known sponsorship with Red Bull.

The official offer would be around 15 million euros. A very low figure that does not convince AC Milan, the Rossoneri paid 22 million for Hakan one year ago. However, the Red and Blacks are not closing the door to Calhanoglu’s sale despite the low opening bid. The club value the Turkey international at least 25 million euros. The parties could meet again next week for a new round of negotiations. RB Leipzig will very likely improve their offer.

The contribution of  Calhanoglu has been underwhelming so far to say the least. In 16 Serie A appearances he has provided only 2 assists and has not scored a single goal. The 24 year old would be sorry to leave San Siro without having given his best but at the same time he would gladly return to his football homeland.

In addition, AC Milan are aiming for a major sale in January in order to reinvest on other transfer targets. Hakan Calhanoglu appears to be a player who can also be sacrificed due to the imminent arrival of Lucas Paqueta, a player with similar qualities and tactical settings.
