The Turkish still protagonist with an assist and a performance to be framed against Empoli. At San Siro he reached his new personal best in Serie A with 7 goals and 12 decisive passes. On Wednesday in the Italian Cup he finds Juve again, against whom he has already been decisive in the two league matches
From intermittent talent to an extra weapon in the Nerazzurri midfield. Inter’s comeback success against Empoli told (also) a new chapter in the evolution and growth of Hakan Calhanoglu, which has now become a certainty for Inzaghi. Against the Tuscans another capital performance for the Turkish, who put a hand on the goal of Lautaro’s momentary 2-2 with an assist to the kiss, thus signing the best personal register in the league: with seven goals and 12 decisive passes, he in fact exceeded the previous record established with Milan in the 2019-20 season (9 goals and as many assists). Having returned to shine in the spring after a period of decline, the Turkish player can be the ace in the hole of the Nerazzurri also on Wednesday in the Italian Cup final against Juve. Against whom he has already made a great impression in the last two league matches.
WARRANTY

The challenge against Empoli said once more that when Calha runs and is inspired, the Nerazzurri car also runs beautifully. In the first half he kept the level of intensity high even when Brozovic struggled to mesh and then inspired Lautaro’s equalizer, in the second half he missed the goal by engaging Vicario and shone for rhythm and athleticism. Not that Inzaghi needed further evidence to certify its importance, but the 70 ‘against the Tuscans served to understand that Calha is one of the fittest men and on the piece just when Inter are playing the Scudetto in the sprint. and with an Italian cup final just around the corner. Hence, evidently, Inzaghi’s choice to replace him 20 ‘from the end, to manage his energies just in view of the clash that is worth the second seasonal trophy.
DOUBLE TURN
–
Among other things, Inzaghi knows that when Calha sees black and white he is particularly inspired. In fact, it was against Juve that the Turkish player began to fly for the Nerazzurri on 24 October, on the ninth matchday of the championship, when he needed an assist for Dzeko’s momentary advantage in the 17th minute, giving way to two months of authenticity. driver. From then on, five goals and as many decisive passes between November and December, a period in which he was elected best player of the month twice by the fans. After that 1-1 against the Bianconeri, Inzaghi and Inter discovered the best version of Calhanoglu, the one that the Turkish lost temporarily between February and March to (re) blossom again from April 3, the date of the return match against the bianconeri in Turin decided by his own penalty at the beginning of the second half. That success relaunched the Nerazzurri in the fight for the title and, at the same time, gave Inzaghi a Calha in deluxe format in subsequent outings against Verona, Spezia, Rome (complete with a brace) and Empoli. Now still under with Juve for another evening as a protagonist, one of those that could be worth a further leap in quality. Both for Calha and for the Inter showcase.
