DBasia.news – The new Inter Milan midfielder, Hakan Calhanoglu, admits he can’t wait to provide assists to two Nerazzurri strikers, Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez. Calhanoglu is ready to welcome the new season with Inter Milan.
The presence of Hakan Calhanoglu is expected to increase creativity in Inter Milan’s midfield. The 27 year old midfielder was known for his creative game when he was still defending AC Milan.
“I have to thank Pioli for doing a great job for me. He gave me the freedom to play where I want. That’s why I created so many chances and assists,” Calhanoglu said on Inter TV.
Now, Calhanoglu is ready to serve as Lautaro Martinez and Romelu Lukaku’s servants. Calhanoglu wants to get to know his two new colleagues better.
“I’m waiting for Lukaku and Lautaro to come back. I can’t wait to play alongside them and provide assists plus create chances for them.”
“But first we have to understand each other on the pitch. I will try to make them understand my movements, even the other way around,” said the midfielder.
No Problem in being a Polemic
Meanwhile, Calhanoglu admitted that he didn’t want to worry about the scorn he receive after moving from Milan to Inter. According to him, switching players between rivals is commonplace.
“The crowd was made on the fans. They were disappointed and that is normal. However, I am not the first and not the last,” stated the Turkey international player.
“There have been many players in the past who left Milan for Inter, and vice versa. I just want to look forward with respect for Milan.”
