Man Utd ‘willing to DOUBLE Hakan Calhanoglu’s wages to £100,000-a-week to seal free transfer from AC Milan’


MANCHESTER UNITED will make Hakan Calhanoglu a double-your-money offer to tempt the midfielder away from AC Milan.

Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hopes to land the Germany-born Turkey international, 26, with a £100,000-a-week deal on a Bosman free transfer.

Calhanoglu, worth around £30million, is out of contract next summer and can speak to other clubs outside Italy from January.

He joined Milan from Bayer Leverkusen in 2017 for £20m.

Milan have offered him a three-year £2.7m-a-season contract but that remains on the table.

But United chiefs will offer him a five-year £5.2m a season deal to come to England, say Spanish media outlet Todofichajes.

It claims the Turkish star’s agent has been approached by United chiefs.

With attacking midfielders like Bruno Fernandes, Paul Pogba and Donny van de Beek already at Old Trafford, you might think Solskaer does not need another of this ilk.

But it looks increasingly likely that France World Cup winner Pogba, 27, will be sold next year as his contract runs down.

Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid have been interested in Pogba.

The future of Dutchman Van de Beek also remains under a cloud.

Signed for an initial £35m from Ajax, the midfielder has struggled to get game time at Old Trafford and could look to move on next year.

Born in Mannheim, Calhanoglu spent much of his football career in Germany.

He played for Karlruher and Hamburg before joining Leverkusen.

He has four goals already this term and scored 11 last campaign.

The fact that he is available without a transfer fee next summer will make him hot property.

Calhanoglu can sign terms with United in a little over nine weeks’ time.

The midfielder has 50 caps for Turkey.
