What happened in Turkish football today? 18/11/2022



Turkey will meet against Czechs at friendly game.

Turkish National Team are going to play international friendly game against Czech Republic as the opponent is being into similar level of quality as were previous opponent Scotland which it won with 2:1 scoreline.

In fact, there is one common thing which makes those 3 sides together, which is for not getting World Cup 2022 ticket via play-off qualifiers which by itself which shows that sides on similar level of quality. However, it needs to be mentioned that Czech Republic is being newly-developed side with some quality players which are eager to prove themselves and keep performance level at high so it would be accepted for them to provide some strong attacking game. Meanwhile, this game is also being farewell game for well-respected Turkish referee Cuneyt Cakir who would come out for first 5 minutes as he would be send farewell. Turkey does have an advantage of playing this friendly at home and it would likely use that as it did agaisnt Scotland. There is also expectation for some younger players to get some playing time who were selected for 1st time

Therefore, this game would be good test for both sides prior to Euro 2024 qualifiers and get closer to game which Stefan Kuntz is seeking for.

Besiktas has terminated contract with Tyler Boyd.

Besiktas has terminated contract with its player Tyler Boyd due of high number of foreign players according to TFF even through there is no official statement yet by club.

It needs to be mentioned that Tyler Boyd has joined few years ago to Besiktas with high expectations following Ankaragucu performance at the club but he wasnt able to fulfill them which led him to be in substitution. It needs to be mentioned that there were signs of potential when he did play for side but he never got into level which team did seek for. Therefore, with club not aiming to play him for near future it would been effective for to sell him or terminate club and without doubt Boyd is also considering this and hence did make deal for termination with his own club as he does need to get some playing time.

Hence, Besiktas did make right decision with this termination as it would been good news for both parties without doubt.

Besiktas are interested to sign Francisco Calvo

Besiktas is being mainly focussed into defensive transfer during upcoming winter transfer window and it is reported that main interest is being given to Giresunspor player Francisco Calvo who tends to score like an attacker.

Giresunspor is pretty unusual defender as he does have high number of goals in his career and he started showing such strong sign in last games at the league against Fenerbahce and in same time is being strong and trustful defender who does show some signs of improvement in future. Therefore, with Besiktas is being focussed into signing defender in winter it is quite natural to give such importance to Calvo as he fits Senol Gunes style of attacking game with being defender and is also being from Super League and hence would not having adaptation period.

Therefore, it is expected that Besiktas would have negotiations with player during this winter and as always we would follow this storyline.
