What happened in Turkish football today? 12/10/2017


Besiktas would come out with big rotation against Genclerbirligi.

Following Turkish National Team poor peformance at the World Cup 2018 qualifiers, Super League would be restarting with 8th week game between Besiktas and Genclerbirligi in Ankara where Besiktas head coach Senol Gunes would provide rotation to the squad.

The main reason for rotation is due of high number of players coming from national duty during break and also due of very important game at the Champions League 3rd  week game against Monaco on 17th October. It needs to be noted that despite of poor performance by Genclerbirligi this game is also very important for Besiktas as it is now 5 points behind Galatasaray but Gunes doesnt have much choice due of important game against Monaco. It is expected that players like Pepe, Cenk Tosun, Oguzhan Ozyakup and Ricardo Quaresma would not be able to start at starting 11 and would be replaced instead by Jeremain Lens and Negredo. This is also without doubt would be great chance for both players to prove their worthiness to the Senol Gunes who was reluctant to play those players this season so far.

This rotation might provide an opportunity for Genclerbirligi to provide surprise result but taking account form of both sides it does need to state that Besiktas are coming out as favourites to the game.

There is discussion if Cenk Tosun should leave or not among Besiktas administrators
.
Staying at the Besiktas one of the talking points right now at the team is regarding of future of its star player Cenk Tosun as he is reported to recieve as much as 10 transfer offers from Europe which could go out to the fee of 20 million euro.

This factor does open conversation if their should sell him and make good money which it can use at the future or keep at the squad one of its main players who is important player. It needs to state here that Cenk Tosun, as expected, himself wants to stay at the club and doesnt want to go to any club whichever has provided an offer to him. Argument which want to sell Cenk Tosun lie into fact that coming cash from his transfer in other hand could provide cash to purchase Talisca from Sporting, so there are tactical aspects of this question. In here it is important of course Senol Gunes and Fikret Orman decision which are not expected to decide to sell him on mid-season or next year summer transfer window but again the time would show how it would develop.

Besiktas as stated would very likely be affected if it loses player like Cenk Tosun and therefore it does look, for now at least, that he would stay at the team at least until end of this season.

Fenerbahce are looking for young and cheap expat player. 

Fenerbahce are reported to focussing into transfering young and cheap but same time potential strong expatriate player who would be able to develop into very good player at the future.

The information about from where and what kind of expatriate their focus is unclear even through their aim to use model of Besiktas which it has used with Oguzhan Ozyakup who was youth academy in Arsenal before joining Besiktas. Fenerbahce until now has only provided information to scouts and its awaited what kind of responds their would give. This aim of course needs could provide some issues at future as it would be hard to see how player would develop and how much use he would be for a team so hard work is coming up for scouts and of course academy of Fenerbahce and technical staff needs to do many work to help potential young expat transfer to develop and hence big role lies to everyone who would be affected with this project.

At mid-season transfer window we are likely to see some names coming up from this possible list of players which it would be aiming to transfer.
