Bayer 04 transfer Calhanoglu to AC Milan
Hakan Calhanoglu leaves Bayer 04 for AC Milan. The Italians accept the transfer terms set by the Werkself where Calhanoglu has been under contract since 2014.
The Turkey international was under contract at Leverkusen up to 30 June 2019.
"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.
