For what seems like years, at the end of every transfer window there’s been a Hakan Calhanoglu to ‘insert Premier League club here’ transfer rumour. And this time it’s Chelsea’s turn again.
Turkey’s Fanatik report Chelsea are ready to submit a £15m offer for Bayer Leverkusen’s midfielder.
It was stated Chelsea had started talks with Bayer Leverkusen and a possible fee was put at €20m.
The Blues have reportedly been scouting Calhanoglu continuously this season, and the 22-year old free kick maestro is enjoying another good season with Bayer 04. Calhanoglu has scored 5 goals and provided 6 assists in 20 games this season, and his team knocked Tottenham out in the Champions League Group stage.
Conte apparently thinks Calhanoglu could be a great No.10 on his 3-4-3 formation and has urged the Chelsea board to splash the cash to get him. The problem is their initial offer may be too low in this current market.
