What happened in Turkish football today? 13.10.2016


Konyaspor has no intentions to send Aykut Kocaman to other team.

Konyaspor administration and head coach Aykut Kocaman has made a strong message to the media today that their have no intentions for Kocaman to leave the team following rumours that Shakhtar Donetsk are considering to appoint him as club head coach in upcoming season. There are also rumours that Turkish National Team could be his next place if Fatih Terim leaves.

There seems to be strong news about Aykut Kocaman changing team especially after his impressive performance at the Konyaspor where he managed to end his team at the 3rd place during last season with an incredible performance during 2nd half of the season. So it is quite normal for such number of strong teams and media focus to be given to him. But he is very happy at his current club and is very unlikely to leave the team at the upcoming future. With the administration also showing his full trust and support, Kocaman has everything for him to stay at the team and even chances for him to go to Shakhtar are low.

Stating that if he does recieve an impressive offer from Shaktar Donetsk and Turkish National Team then things could change entirely and Kocaman quite rightly might choose this new path.

Turkish National Teams World Cup qualifies next 2 games will kick-off at 20:00

UEFA has announced changes to kick-off times for Turkish National Team at the World Cup
Qualifier due of Turkey not changing to day-saving time on 30th October. The following decision would mean that games would be able to end at around 22:00 rather 00:45 if it kick-off at usual time.

 The following decision means that kick-off times of Kosova on 12th November and Finland game next year on March would be both kick-off at 20:00. Which is 1 hour 45 minutes earlier than usual kick-off time. This move is surely good news for supporters who would not need to leave the game at late hours and enjoy watching game in much more reasonable time. This change of time has also been observed earlier at Champions League to assist Turkish fans to be able to fill up stadiums without ending game to late.

This is good decision and would mainly satisfy supporters among media outlets who would be made to provide postmatch reviews without ending too late time.

Besiktas player Kerim Frei doesnt want to stay at the team.

There are reports at the Turkish sports media that Besiktas player Kerim Frei wants to leave the team due of not recieving enough playing time and in fact his father has contacted to team administration to ask team to sell him to other club.

It is known that right now, Kerim Frei is not playing enough as he was expecting to do and in fact not as much as team wanted to use for this season and therefore it is quite natural for a player willing to recieve much more playing time and as option demanding to go to other club. It is reported that Koln are interested to transfer him during mid-season transfer window which could be very good move for Frei as he would move to very competitive league where he would play at the team where he can recieve pretty high amount of playing time. Therefore, it would be nice move by him in winter and would surely satisfy all the bodies.

It is still unclear how Besiktas would react to this offer from Koln and demand from Kerim Frei for leaving the team but for him to stay at the team without being happy surely will not keep him happy and will not be useful for a team also.
