EspañolInter Milan Vs Genoa – Turkey Megastar Fit For Saturday Clash At San Siro
Inter Milan star Hakan Calhanoglu will reportedly be in contention for Saturday’s Serie A clash against Genoa at San Siro.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, Lautaro Martinez remains the only notable absentee in the home squad.
Hakan Calhanoglu missed Inter’s last league outing, as well as both Champions League playoff legs against Bodo/Glimt.
However, the Turkish midfielder has apparently regained full fitness, shrugging off a minor calf problem.

Calhanoglu resumed full training yesterday and will be in contention for the team this weekend.
Whether Cristian Chivu would decide to hand him a starting berth remains uncertain.
Nevertheless, the 32-year-old’s return from injury comes as a major boost for Inter, as they bid to win a domestic double.
Sitting ten points clear of second-placed AC Milan, Chivu’s charges are in firm control of their Serie A title quest.
Furthermore, they’ll face Como in a two-legged Coppa Italia tie, and Calhanoglu’s recovery could prove decisive in their push to secure both trophies.
