Bundesliga giants want £26.4m for Arsenal & Tottenham target who has entered talks with Italian giants

Bayer Leverkusen star Hakan Calhanoglu has been closely linked with a summer exit.

AC Milan became the latest side to enter the race for the Turkish international.

Calhanoglu’s agent confirmed talks are ongoing with the Italian giants.

“AC Milan are one of the biggest clubs in the world,” Bektas was quoted as saying by German newspaper WAZ.

“We are currently in talks but I cannot reveal any further details, this is all I will say on the matter for now.”

Bayer reportedly want £26.4 million [€30m] for the 23-year-old according to Sky Sport 24.

The free-kick maestro does have another two-years remaining on his contract, giving Bayer a strong position to demand their valuation is matched.

AC Milan could still face competition from Premier League sides.

Arsenal, Tottenham and Everton are all targeting a move for Calhanoglu according to the BILD.

The Bayer star had his season disrupted by FIFA after the world football governing body suspended him from playing club and international football for four months.

The ban was issued over an incident which took place when he was aged 17.

Calhanoglu and his father were accused of taking a €100,000 payment to sign a professional contract with Trabzonspor but instead signed for Karlshruher.

The Turkish international is renowned for his set-piece taking ability. In fact no other player in the top-five European leagues has scored as many goals from direct free-kicks as Calhanoglu since 2013-14.
