Inter have confirmed that Hakan Calhanoglu is back in shape after the suspected injury suffered during the last match. The Turkish midfielder participated in the normal post-match unloading work and appeared in perfect condition, as reported by FcInterNews.it. The news allayed the fears that had spread among the fans and the club's management.
Coach IvanChivu, who had made the first statements on the player's state of health, reiterated that Calhanoglu is "fine" and that his recovery has been managed with care. "We gave him an hour's rest after a week of intense work. It was the right time to let him play, to let him regain his confidence and physical condition. We are forced to make these choices but we are happy with how he and his teammates responded", explained Chivu. The midfielder was therefore able to resume his role within the group.
While Calhanoglu recovered, two other players had to undergo more targeted recovery work. JohnStones and CurtisJones, both injured, performed specific exercises for their recovery phase. The rest of the team, however, is ready to leave for the next Champions League match against Brugge, where Inter aims to consolidate its position in the standings.
The coach expressed satisfaction with the midfielder's response and the positive attitude of the rest of the group. “We are happy with how he and his teammates responded,” he added, underlining the importance of maintaining a climate of trust and motivation within the team. Inter, with Calhanoglu available again, is preparing to give its all against the Belgian club, with the aim of advancing in the European competition.
With the resumption of training and the confirmation of Calhanoglu's availability, Inter is approaching the final phase of its preparation for the Champions League. The next match with Brugge represents a crucial opportunity to consolidate the group and demonstrate the strength of Chivu's team. Fans can now look forward with greater peace of mind, knowing that the team is complete and ready to compete at the highest level.
