Hakan Calhanoglu has provided five assists from set plays in Serie A this season, but an Inter secret message may have been uncovered by Beppe Bergomi.
The Turkey international whipped in a corner for the Ivan Perisic header at the near post in this evening’s 5-0 victory over Salernitana.
It was a traditional Nerazzurri goal for this campaign, but Sky Sport Italia pundit and former Inter captain Giuseppe Bergomi noticed an intriguing ‘tell’ from Calhanoglu.
When the midfielder raises both arms, it represents a signal to his teammates that he will put the corner to the near post.
This has proved very effective so far, as Calhanoglu provided five assists from set plays in Serie A this season.
That is more than any other player in the top five European Leagues for the current campaign.
After Bergomi revealed Calhanoglu’s secret message, will the Nerazzurri continue to be this unstoppable from corners?
