The Champions League finalist plans to secure two of his mainstays. Bastoni and Çalhanoglu are expected to sign new contracts with Inter soon

Inter Milan can crown this season with their biggest success since 2010, the last time they won the Champions League under Jose Mourinho. They need to take the final step. But a very difficult step. In the final of the millionaire’s competition, they face a fantastic Manchester City. Two key players, who should soon be waiting for a new contract with the Italian team, will also be trying to defeat the English giant.

According to respected Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, offensive midfielder Hakan Çalhanoglu and stopper Alessandro Bastoni should soon sign new long-term contracts with Inter Milan.

Both of these players have been instrumental in Inter’s appearance in the Champions League final. Therefore, it is not surprising that Inter’s management is keen on the continuation of these players in the blue and black jersey.

Twenty-nine-year-old Çalhanoglu is playing his second season at Inter. Before that, he spent four years at the team of the central rival of the blue and black. AC Milan. However, he is not the only player to have played some part of his career at both Milan clubs. We could mention Zlatan Ibrahimovic or Andrea Pirlo.

According to Roman, the Turkish midfielder is expected to sign a contract until June 2027. The player himself is happy to continue at Inter. “I’m very happy to continue here,” Çalhanoglu said of his contract extension.

At twenty-four years old, Bastoni is one of the players Inter would like to build their future on. Already, Bastoni is one of the certainties in the Milan club’s back line. According to journalist Romano, the Italian defender is expected to sign a contract that will keep him at the San Siro until 2028.

Thus, Inter Milan have sorted out the future of their two mainstays and can now fully concentrate on the most important game of the season.

The Champions League final against Manchester City will be played on 10 June in Istanbul, Turkey. And both Bastoni and Çalhanoglu would like to repay the club’s management for their new contracts by lifting the Eared Cup above their heads.
