Meanwhile Sky Sports confirms the strong interest of RB Leipzig for Calhanoglu, revealing that the parties have already agreed personal terms. Even though AC Milan are willing to sell coach Gennaro Gattuso insists on keeping Calhanoglu. Despite the disappointing form in the first half of the season, the 24 year old is considered an important player for the team. The coach still relies on him and believes Hakan can be decisive for Milan in the future.
