What happened in Turkish football today? 14/11/2022



Atalanta decided not to send its player Merih Demiral to national side.

Turkish National Team player Merih Demiral has been taken out from squad for international friendly games against Scotland and Czech Republic from request of his club Atalanta.

During this international friendly games, all of the clubs has right not to send its players to national squad camps even if they have been called to. It needs to be mentioned that such issue hasnt been case from Turkish clubs which send to national team and among other clubs but Atalanta has decided to keep him. Such decision could be either due of preventing factor of him to be injured or working with him during this World Cup at the break. In either case, it does look main reason is for fear and worry for player to  get injured when taking account this are only friendlies. 

Such decision, without doubt would be seen as Atalanta but should be treated with understanding as side did use its right for such option.

TFF has organised its fair-play awards.

TFF has organised fair-play awards for first time in its history as it has provided awards to winners of Super League 1st weeks as it being approximately 1/4 of the season were played.

This newly-selected administration led by Mehmet Buyukeksi has stated several times since being selected is to bring togetherness and understanding between TFF and clubs and such move is without doubt has been decided to provide some positive effect towards clubs and motivation not to create chaos. The awards were given according of either not being referred or being referred minumum amount towards PFDK. By giving those awards hence this has motivated winners and others to provide much more positive and attitude to each other. 

Hence, this has been positive behaviour and could provide some good outcomes during this season hopefully.

Super League is going on break for 45-days due of World Cup 2022

Due of World Cup 2022 which would start on 20th November in Qatar, Super League would be going to 45 days break which to some extend could be treated as pre-season period it goes through.

To some extend, this break could be seen in Turkey and rest of the world as division of the season into two halves as with leagues being met right into the end of 1st half or in some cases, like in Turkey, in duration of 1st half of the season. With Turkey not participating at World Cup, and even through there are players which would compete in competition from Turkish clubs, it could be stated that most clubs would be able to go through training camp, which would be taking place of clubs in around 10-days time would provide opportunity to work and improve sides which are either being tired from playing both in Super League and European competitions and also who are not showing good performance. Hence, this is being good opportunity and time would show how their would use this opportunity.

Hence, this is being good opportunity but question is if clubs would make it effective or not would become clear after league will be resumed in end of December.
