Manchester United 'to offer Hakan Calhanoglu five-year contract'

Manchester United are reportedly preparing to offer AC Milan attacker Hakan Calhanoglu a five-year contract to make the move to Old Trafford on a free transfer.

The 26-year-old has been in excellent form for Milan during the 2020-21 campaign, scoring four times and providing four assists in eight appearances in all competitions.

The Turkey international will be out of contract next June, though, and according to Gazzetta dello Sport, United are interested in bringing him to the Premier League.

The report claims that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are preparing to tempt the attacker with the offer of a five-year contract, but Milan are allegedly still hopeful of agreeing fresh terms before the end of 2020.

Calhanoglu moved to San Siro from Bayer Leverkusen in 2017 and has 137 appearances for the Italian giants in all competitions, contributing 27 goals and 40 assists in the process.

A number of Spanish clubs are also believed to be keeping a close eye on developments.
