What happened in Turkish football today? 22/11/2018


Galatasaray is expected to have tough game against Konyaspor.

Turkish Super League would be restarted following not very good national team campaign for Turkey with 13th week game between Galatasaray and Konyaspor which also is being among most awaited games of this week.

As it is known, due of high number of the bans and injuries which Galatasaray has it would have a trouble at having perfect starting 11 during the game and even through the team did show good performance during last week against Kayserispor, it needs to be admitted that their opponents has been weak. This time their would be meeting with Konyaspor who has appointed Aykut Kocaman for 2.5 years and hence would be playing against team and coach who would like to have good start at his new team. This game is also important for Besiktas so it wont be able to raise point difference of 4 points against Basaksehirspor and keep its high aims for league title and also get an important motivational and confidence boost prior to crucial Champions League game against Lokomotiv Moscow next week. An issue of playing game without Fatih Terim at coaching position would also direct affect of game.

Galatasaray would be coming to the game as favourite but it wont be an easy game for them at all as Konyaspor has also good motivation for this particular game.

Fenerbahce CEO Ali Koc would be present at Trabzonspor stadium on 25th November. 

Prior to Super League 13th week game between Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce which would take place on 25th November, their are seems to be some friendship mood being present between two clubs CEO.

With on-going disagreements and rivarly between both clubs which has been heated following match-fixing incident back on 2011, Fenerbahce CEO Ali Koc would be 1st CEO to be present at the stadium in Trabzon after 7 years, a move which is focussed to bring closeness and friendship between side. Trabzonspor CEO Ahmet Agaoglu in other hand has promised that he would be able to provide all hospitality and also would visit to 2nd half of the season game between sides in Istanbul. It needs to be noted that in recent periods, the tension between sides has been reduced meanwhile and it is expected that their would not be many high tensions during game between sides and we could be seeing some high quality game at the game which both teams are hungry to win. Only negative aspect is that their would not be allowed Fenerbahce fans but on other hand it could easily prevent high tension and fight between both fans.

Actions of both clubs CEO could motivate other people, such as administrators, Trabzonspor fans and players to mainly focus into game rather rivarly aspects outside of football on 25th November.

Hamburg are interested to transfer Besiktas player Tolgay Arslan. 

Transfer rumours of problematic Besiktas player Tolgay Arslan who is currently is not included at squad does continue to take place as new side which is interested with player is being Hamburg.

Tolgay Arslan did play for Hamburg previously which could be among reasons why German side might be showing an interest towards him as it could see chance to make good deal with him. Besiktas as it is known and both player are willing to end contract with each other during mid-season transfer window and with such an interest from Bundesliga sides towards Tolga Arslan could also lead Besiktas to make good amount of cash even through it does look that main priority for team is to sell him in whatever cost as him staying at the club would not do any good both to Besiktas and Arslan himself. This option of Hamburg for now does make sense for this deal to be made and their are rumours that direct negotiations between sides has been arleady taken place.

As always, time would show if this transfer would happen or not but as been mentioned this is being good option for both sides during upcoming transfer window.
