What happened in Turkish football today? 23/03/2019


Turkish National Team had good start for Euro 2020 qualifiers.

Turkish National Team has started Euro 2020 qualifiers in perfect manner as it has managed to beat Albania with 2:0 scoreline even through it didnt provide perfect game but has shown great convertency of chances as it has scored 2 goals from 3 chances.

As it is known, it is very important to start this campaign with a win since this group could be pretty tough for Turkey as it contain World Cup champions France and also Iceland and Albania which normally can create some issues. Being lucky that Albania wasnt providing their best performance during game, Turkey has shown pretty economical performance and didnt had provided high tempo which would be expected from them but still it has used its chances as mentioned in good manner. With taking account that Turkey in recent years are known to lose in qualifiers to weaker opponents and also not start qualifiers lately at high note it was important to get this win. With Burak Yilmaz scoring goal and also having ruling out for offside, has shown that he would be key player at national team and aims to find many goals.

Next stop for Turkey would be Moldova as it would also be aiming for win at home and could be approaching to games against France and Iceland in June with high motivation and confidence for sure.

CAS would go through UEFA decision to go through against FFP deal with Galatasaray.

CAS has approved Galatasaray complaint towards UEFA who has wanted to revise FFP deal made between sides as Galatasaray has complained but this revision is unexpectably. Galatasaray still got good news since their wasnt much expectation that CAS would be expecting this case.

Even through it still unclear what would be final decision, it is arleady important for factor that CAS would be going through this issue and would gain information from UEFA. This could be seen as an important gain for Galatasaray CEO Mustafa Cengiz especially taking account that their is yearly financial meeting of the club taking place today. Still, UEFA is expected would be giving its defence to CAS which could be stronger one and if it wins case it could have some issues between UEFA and Galatasaray in future. But as been mentioned, when this issue was discussed last year in our blog that Galatasaray did right think to go after this issue if it finds some things to be done wrongly. Now Galatasaray would certainly expect for decision to be done on their favour from CAS.

CAS as always would take mediocre approach and listen both sides so Galatasaray still needs to do many things in near future.

Galatasaray considers to loan its player Yunus Akgun to Giresunspor. 

Galatasaray are considering to loan its player Yunus Akgun to Giresunspor to next season after it would make deal to extend contract with its player to allow him to get experience.

This news to some extend or more precisely rumour would be seen as surprise however as their were talks at the media before hand that outside Turkey clubs like Anderlecht are showing strong interest to the player but this could be really related factor that it is aware of Akgun and aims to keep him close to the team and only sends him to Giresunspor, if it would for gaining playing time and experience as his level of performance is not yet for starting 11. Of course, Akgun decision might also play role as he is known that he wanted to join European side but again if their is no much quarentee that he would be able to get much playing time abroad than this option could be most suitable for him. As always this rumour is pretty different from all previous ones and hence time would show how this story would develop.

Once again it does look Akgun reaction to this decision, if there is one, as he wanted to join Europe a lot during mid-season break and likely still wants to do so in summer.
