Hakan Calhanoglu to miss Atalanta clash due to injury

Inter Milan has announced that their midfielder, Hakan Calhanoglu, has experienced a muscle strain before their upcoming Serie A game with Atalanta.

The team released a formal announcement about the medical examination conducted on the Turkish athlete today. The results showed a minor injury to the muscles in the player's right leg.

Last night, the coach of Inter, Simone Inzaghi, confirmed that Calhanoglu was not in optimal physical condition.

That's why the player who's 30 years old didn't participate in the Lecce match.

Earlier today, the ex-AC Milan and Bayer Leverkusen midfielder completed the anticipated medical examinations.

Inter's Hakan Calhanoglu Has Minor Muscle Strain Before Atalanta Game

The examinations verified that Calhanoglu has experienced a small injury to the adductor longus muscle located in his right thigh.

The major query at hand is the expected date for Calhanoglu's comeback.

It appears highly unlikely that the midfield player will make a comeback before the next game of the team.

Inter will once again play a match in a mere two days. Their opposing team will be Atalanta and the match is scheduled for Wednesday evening, as part of the Serie A league.

The upcoming game is scheduled for the middle of the week. It's a replacement match for the one that the Nerazzurri couldn't play due to participating in the Supercoppa Italiana tournament last month.

It's not entirely certain about the exact time when Calhanoglu will recover and come back.

The upcoming pair of games in Serie A are versus Genoa and Bologna.

Next up is the crucial second leg of the Champions League round of sixteen against Atletico Madrid, which is an incredibly significant match for Inter. It is imperative for the team to have Calhanoglu, a valuable player, ready for this game.

We should soon have a better idea of when Calhanoglu will be fully recovered.

Next, it will become evident which games the Turkish team can participate in again.

Almost certainly, he will not be able to play in the game versus Atalanta.
