Scandal in the locker room of Inter: Lautaro attacks çalhanoğlu, it is an internal war after the knockout with the fluminense!
MILAN – The atmosphere in the locker room of Inter became hot after the sensational defeat against Fluminense. A game to forget, but what made the Nerazzurri world tremble is not only the result on the field, but what happened immediately after the final whistle: a violent confrontation between Captain Lautaro Martinez and the Turkish midfielder Hakan çalhanğlu.
According to sources close to the club, the Argentine bomber – visibly frustrated – would have pointed his finger at çalhanoğlu in front of all the locker room, openly accusing him of little commitment and lack of attachment to the shirt. “You no longer want to fight for this team,” Lautaro would have shouted, causing a frost between his companions.
The tension went up to the stars and Hakan’s reply was not long in coming. The Turkish midfielder, one of the technical leaders of the team, would have replied with hard and decisive tones: “I give everything every time I go down the field. Maybe it’s you who should look in the mirror before talking about the others.” A phrase that, according to those present, would have left Martinez speechless and would have silenced the entire locker room.
The episode immediately made the tour of the Italian and European media, with Inter now called to manage a real internal crisis in one of the most delicate moments of the season. After a positive vintage so far, the ko against the fluminense and the tensions in the locker room risk seriously compromising the climate inside the team.
Simone Inzaghi, Nerazzurri technician, said he was “surprised and sorry” for what happened, but he promised that he will talk to both players to clarify the situation. “We cannot afford divisions, we have to stay united,” he told the microphones after today’s training.
The company, for its part, has made it known that it is carefully monitoring the evolution of the story and does not exclude disciplinary measures if further compromising details emerge.
Meanwhile, on social networks, the fans are divided: there are those who defend Lautaro for his leader spirit and who instead takes the parts of çalhanoğlu, underlining how the Turk has always been one of the most constant in the season.
The hope for all Inter supporters is that the quarrel can be put behind it as soon as possible, perhaps with a clarification between the two protagonists. But one thing is certain: the Nerazzurri locker room is no longer the peaceful place of a few months ago, and the risk of an internal fracture is increasingly concrete.
Will Inter be able to find the unity and the concentration necessary to return to win? The next few weeks will be decisive.
