What happened in Turkish football today? 18/05/2023



Fenerbahce beats Trabzonspor and now waits for present from Sivasspor on weekend

Fenerbahce keeps their title chances arrive after beating Trabzonspor with 3:1 scoreline as it would be waiting for Galatasaray to lose points against Sivasspor this weekend while it wont be playing any games.

It needs to be mentioned that Fenerbahce without doubt did come out with many pleasures as in case of loss it would be almost losing its title opportunities into none and also regardless how bad season does Trabzonspor have, it would be seen as another gamw against big team as it didnt win single game prior to this game. However, it needs to be mentioned that Fenerbahce did come out in pretty confident manner to the game and didnt look like side which has been felt under pressure. With focussing into an attacking game has led for some to create some chances and also found an early goal thanks to the Michy Batshuayi. Following that goal, Fenerbahce did carry on such manner and even through it did allow Trabzonspor to create some chances, it did look to be side at control of the game compare to previous games which also did come to thanks for right tactical game of the side. Hence, Fenerbahce did play right game and did get well-deserved win.

Trabzonspor which has been showing not very satisfying game during season as whole and also recent weeks did come out underdogs and with its performance it did look it wasnt on such level among also some tactical mistakes it has shown. It did create some good chances at the end of 1st half and also domr periods of 2nd half, but it did failed to provide real issues to Fenerbahce.

Fenerbahce hence did get an important win as it would not be playing next week and would be waiting for loss from Galatasaray prior to derby game. This win would also provide confidence in case if that game would be decider. 

Fatih Karagumruk will not sign new contract with Andrea Pirlo.

Fatih Karagumruk are not considering to sign new contract with its head coach Andrea Pirlo after this season as even through team did improve in recent weeks, it didnt fully achieve its aims which team possibly has set on.

As it is known, Andrea Pirlo is still being on early days in his coaching career and working with Fatih Karagumruk without doubt has provided him an important experience as he did improve his coaching skills even at the club. Despite of that and also among financial factors, Pirlo didnt get into level which Fatih Karagumruk as it did aim to make team which would be fighting for European spots. Still, if he does leave there might be strong interest from other Super League clubs as he did make his name in this league but there would be expectation that there would be interest from Europe towards him too.

Andrea Pirlo did provide an important performance in this club and surely would be aiming to continue top level performance until end of the season.

Besiktas are interested to sign Jefferson Lerma

Besiktas are interested to sign Bournemouth player Jefferson Lerma who would be able to improve performance of the team at the midfielding area as there some interests from other club of him.

Even through there is lots of interest towards player around Europe and also England, it is not expected that there would be lots of insisting work and also talks of high transfer fees so Besiktas would have some good chances to sign player which did recieve lots of interests at transfer front in Turkey on previous years. Still, Besiktas would need to act fast to prevent other clubs doing much more active transfer negotiations with player.

It does look like Besiktas would have Lerma as one of the main aims for this summer transfer window and we would follow all developments on this matter
