What happened in Turkish football today? 20/02/2023



Support towards earthquake affected people continues among Super League clubs.

Turkish football clubs are continuing to provide fundraising activities with Galatasaray continuing taking leading role more or less with a campaign to provide football shirt to open sale continues.

Galatasaray player Berkan Kutlu and team scouting and performance analyst director Emre Utkucan has opened to open sale Nicolo Zaniolo and Didier Drogba football shirts among Roberto Mancini scarf as it would be expected for this campaign to raise significant amount of funds to make life easier for people who has been affected from 7.7 and 7.6 earthquake and hence provide much needed support and helpness to raise up from this difficult days. In addition, Fenerbahce player Serdar Dursun has visited hospital where he met with earthquake affected Omer and gave him as present football shirt as player continue giving motivation to kids.

Actions towards morale and monetary support of people affected by earthquake and would need to carry on in this period.

Ankaragucu has appointed Sedat Agcay as club's head coach.

Ankaragucu has appointed its caretaker coach Sedat Agcay as clubs head coach as it didnt find alternative after Omer Erdogan has left side due of unsuccessful results.

Taking account of earthquake factor and also not much coaches being available in this tournament, Ankaragucu has decided to appoint Sedat Agcay as it is head coach as team has also been worked at academy for long time and hence is being aware of club aims and potential and hence would be focussing into getting good results which sides need urgently when league would be resumed. He doesnt have much experience at top level but being aware of side potential as been noted would provide advantage to get some good results.

It is being difficult moment from Ankaragucu and hence he would need to focus into how side would get some good results at short period of time to get away from relegation zone.

Crises regarding Onur Bulut joining Besiktas grows.  

Crises regarding of Besiktas signing Kayserispor player Onur Bulut with sending 1 million euro release clause is being build on as his former club argues that this deal doesnt go through signed extension contract with Bulut.

With lots of confusion regarding an issue, Onur Bulut has stated that there was 3-year extension with Kayserispor but also adds that there was an option for clubs to send 1 million euro release clause before 6th February and this has been send on time towards Kayserispor and hence this deal is being legal. All of the sides meanwhile would be going both to TFF justice section as study of this issue would be going through and hopefully right decision would be given. It does look wording of the contract would be playing an issue which wasnt shown to media and only words of bodies involved made statements.

Our page as always would follow this issue and provide latest developments as they happen on our pages.
