What happened in Turkish football today? 13/10/2018


Turkey needs to win last 2 games at Nations League to end group as leaders.

Turkish National Team would play an important game at the Nations League against League B 2nd group leaders Russia where to have chance to end this group at the top and get to the promotion for League A it has only option to win game.

As we are currently, at the middle of the Nations League group stage with Russia being leaders of the group with 1 point ahead of Turkey would need be aiming to win game next 2 games to end group as leaders starting with tomorrow game. It does need to be noted that Turkey would be coming out to the game with strong motivation and confidence as their did show good performance against Sweden and also during friendly game agaisnt Bosnia, but factor that their didnt find goal does raise some worries as draw tomorrow certainly will not be enough for them. As it is known, game between Russia and Sweden on 11th October has been ended with 0:0 draw where it home ground Russia has failed to provide very promising game which does raise some uncertainty at the team right now. Therefore, if Turkey would carry on good optimistic performance on the day it would be capable to get good result for sure.

Fate of how it would end this group is currently is at hand of Turkey as long as it would be end those games with wins and hence it would need to only aim to win today to keep its hopes arrive.

Besiktas player Adriano has become injured once again

Besiktas player Adriano has become injured once again during today's training game against its under-21 side and hence does show that one of the key players at the side injury has not been recovered fully and is questionable if he would be able to return next week when league resumes.

As soon as Adriano, has been resumed training sessions he has come out to training game until team's youth team but has experienced pain once again and wasnt able to complete game which does show that his injury is not fully recovered sadly for Besiktas. With Besiktas not being able to show very good performance right now with being unstable performance it does need to look also alternative at midfielder as Adem Ljajic has also experienced injury while being at the Serbian National Team training camp. Of course, after tests done by medical staff at Besiktas it would become clear how serious is injury of Adriano currently but this news is not good at all and team would need to show some patience to get its perfect performance.

Right now Besiktas would be hoping that this recurring injury wont be as serious for them as was previous one and he would be able to return to team at short notice.

Everton considers to loan Cenk Tosun to Besiktas in mid-season transfer window.

Everton made it clear that club would consider to loan its player Cenk Tosun back to Besiktas during mid-season transfer window if it manages to transfer Divock Origi at the same time.

It is been reported in latest days that there is possibility for Cenk Tosun to return to Besiktas as both clubs are interested for this to take place while Tosun himself made it clear to team that he would like to return to Besiktas. Despite of good performance during last season by Tosun, he didnt manage to show same kind of performance at the team during this season and with possibility of Everton to purchase Divock Origi it would be able to loan him to other club, with Besiktas being main candidate. With Besiktas also having some problems with quality attackers it would consider for this to take place into reality as long as it makes deal between player and Everton in good matters and if this would happen it would be win-win situation for both parties.

However, until mid-season transfer window there is long period and its unclear what would happen in between those period of times for sure.
