Calhanoglu or Asllani? Inzaghi Faces Selection Dilemma for Cagliari Match

MILAN, Italy — Hakan Calhanoglu and Kristjan Asllani are competing for a starting spot as Inter Milan prepares to face Cagliari in a crucial Serie A match this evening.

According to the latest edition of the Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi is faced with a key decision regarding his lineup. The biggest question lies in the holding midfield position as the team aims for a favorable result.

Calhanoglu has been a consistent presence for Inter, starting in the last four matches across all competitions. Meanwhile, Asllani played against Parma last weekend but missed the first leg matches against AC Milan in the Coppa Italia and Bayern Munich in the Champions League due to suspension.

Last Saturday’s game saw both players start, marking a strategic experiment from Inzaghi. However, tonight’s match will likely see only one of them in the starting lineup.

As the match approaches, speculation arises regarding Inzaghi’s choice. If he opts to rest Calhanoglu, it is expected that Asllani will seize the opportunity to play. However, the report from Corriere suggests that Inzaghi may choose to keep Calhanoglu, who previously played for AC Milan and Bayer Leverkusen, in the lineup for a fifth consecutive match.

Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see which midfielder takes to the pitch against Cagliari, a decision that could significantly influence the team’s tactical setup and chances for victory.
