Tension Rises at Inter Milan – Martinez and Calhanoglu in Heated Dispute

Tensions at Inter Milan have reached a critical point after Lautaro Martinez harshly criticized Hakan Calhanoglu’s reported desire to transfer to Galatasaray. The situation deteriorated following the team’s failure in the 2025 Club World Cup with a 0-2 defeat to Fluminense in the round of 16.

“I see many things I don’t like. Anyone who doesn’t want to stay at Inter should leave,” Martinez stated firmly after the match.

“As captain, I want to fight for our targets and we are an important club. Anyone who wants to stay can remain here. Those who don’t want to stay, they can go,” the captain added.

Martinez’s strong statements received an equally sharp response from Calhanoglu — further aggravating the club’s already unstable internal situation.
