What happened in Turkish football today? 23/03/2021



 Turkey are going to Holland game with high hopes.

Turkish National Team are going to start World Cup 2022 qualifier with side which is likely to be its main rival if it wants to end group at top spot, Holland which even through did show some poor results few years ago, is currently going through some positive changes.

Despite of poor performance during Nations League as it ended group at last spot and being relegated from League B to C, there is still big hopes for Turkey to provide some good performance as it is expected for side to have much more focus and concentration in this game. Starting with main favourite of the group does have its advantage as it would be able to provide test of its current strength straight away and good performance against them, even without winning game, could provide right motivation, confidence and hence momentum for rest of the group stage, while win would even provide even more of this factors. Turkey during last meeting did actually win Holland with showing some good game so there is no reason why it cant repeat that again.

Turkey does come out with high hopes with good squad to World Cup 2022 qualifier and without doubt it would seek to have great start with Holland.

Erzurumspor has appointed Ismail Kartal.

Erzurumspor has appointed Ismail Kartal to head coach post as side would be focussing to end this season above relegation zone with providing one of the experienced coaches but its not easy task at all.

As been noted, Ismail Kartal are among experienced coaches in Super League coaching sides which aim for title, mediocre spots and staying in the league, as he would be joining side which is trying now to get out from relegation. With Erzurumspor does have not very bad squad, but it does lack of getting final touches which hence pushes them into lower position so hence Ismail Kartal main task during this national team break is to provide needed motivation for forward players with starting for side to convert opportunities and starting getting points. Kartal does have experience to achieve this but it would be difficult task due of quality of side.

Still, its big challenge which Ismail Kartal would be focussed and dedicated to achieve without doubt for rest of the season.

Torino are interested to transfer Ersin Destanoglu.

Torino are interested to transfer Besiktas player Ersin Destanoglu, as he is being one of the goalkeepers who marked his mark both at Super League and providing high hopes for future of Turkish goals being at save hands.

With summer transfer window is getting slowly closer, it is expected for clubs to be showing interest with Besiktas player especially from Europe, with Destanoglu continuining his performance in similar manner, some more impressive offers would be coming from bigger clubs. It is likely for Besiktas to wait until end of the season as he does have potential player with playing some role for side winning potentially title which would raise his worth and would lead to have upper hand for negotiations with clubs with setting its own conditions. 

We would as always see how interests towards Ersin Destanoglu would be taking place in our acconts for sure.
