"The three years at Bayer 04 were very emotional. I'd like to thank the club, the staff and above all the fans. The support has been sensational especially during my four-month ban. I'd now like to write a new chapter in my career. I'll always be happy to look back my time at Bayer 04," said Calhanoglu.
