Hakan Calhanoglu didn’t hold back when celebrating Inter’s SuperCoppa win over former side Milan: ‘Karma comes around.’ The Turkish International incurred the wrath of his former teammates and fans in 2021 when he crossed the city to join the Nerazzurri on a free transfer. When the Rossoneri lifted the Scudetto last summer, Calhanoglu was the subject of insulting chants during the trophy celebrations, something he hasn’t forgotten. Speaking to Sport Mediaset, the 28-year-old spoke of the importance of lifting the trophy with Inter and kept some choice words for Milan:
“It is a very important trophy, even more so for me. I thank my teammates and fans, we showed today with a 3-0 result that there’s not much to argue with.
Of course, I always prefer to stay quiet. It was very nasty for me to see things I did not expect, but karma comes around. Karma comes around. We were hungry today, they have to respect that with a 3-0 result, we sent them home quickly. I think today we gobbled Milan up. That’s all there is to it.
The title? We believe to the end. We did well against Napoli, had that slip-up against Monza that nobody expected, but got back on track with Verona. There’s a long way to go and we can do it.”
