Turkish giants Fenerbahce are reportedly willing to spend big to lure Hakan Calhanoglu away from Inter Milan.
According to La Repubblica via FCInter1908, the Canaries are planning to submit a €30 million bid for the star midfielder.
In contrast to recent reports, Fenerbahce could pay Inter’s asking price in full.
Indeed, earlier indications suggested Jose Mourinho’s side would only offer up to €20m.
However, after reportedly agreeing on personal terms with the player, they’re ready to lift their offer.

Hakan Calhanoglu has allegedly promised to join Fenerbahce.

On the other hand, Inter have identified Granit Xhaka as the ideal replacement.
