Çalhanoğlu suffered a thigh muscle injury. The same problem he had in Saturday’s goalless draw with Wales in the UEFA Nations League, and was only on the pitch for half time. Initial tests on the Turkish national team did not find the injury serious UFABET
However, coach Simone Inzaghi is unlikely to risk using Chalanolu for Saturday’s trip. To Hellas Verona at the Bentegodi Stadio in order to prevent a serious injury.
“If Shalanolu can’t play, I really don’t know if I’ll get a chance.” Aslani told reporters after Albania’s Nations League clash with Ukraine.
“Do I feel ready? I’ve always said I feel like I’ve grown a lot. No matter how much I play, even if it’s just 20 minutes. I’ll try to do my best because I’m still 22.”
“The difference in my role between Inter and Albania is not that big. I can play in any midfield position, but I have always played as a playmaker in front of the back four. I like that position.”
“Serie A or Champions League? If you’re Inter Milan, the goal is to secure trophies—you have to win. We want to win the Scudetto again but also be key players in the Champions League.”
