What happened in Turkish football today? 11/09/2024



Turkey showed mixture of performance in opening 2 games at Nations League.

Turkish National Team has completed first 2 games at Nations League at the September period at the top spot in the League B Group 4 thanks to an extra goal scored compare to Wales despite of factor that it did provide two different performances in opening 2 games.

We have seen without doubt 2 different Turkish National Team at the games against Wales and Iceland as it has provided pretty low tempo and uncreative game against Wales where it has been lucky not to lose game while it has shown dominant game against Iceland hence once again providing an image of being unstable side. It needs to be mentioned that playing at home and also lots of criticism during game against Wales did have also an impact at the game against Iceland among level of both sides. Still, getting point at Wales which has been dominating game and did lack finding final touches at attack would be seen as crucial point and help side to end group stage at top spot which would lead them to be promoted to League A.

Turkey did provide two different games and without doubt fans would be expecting for side to show performance which it did against Iceland in more regular cases during whole campaign.

Simon Banza arrived to Trabzon for Trabzonspor.

Trabzonspor player Simon Banza has arrived to Trabzon as there has been lots of expectations with an attacking player who has stated that he would provide strong attacking game and feels ready to play against Besiktas in upcoming game.

Trabzonspor it needs to be mentioned did have some serious issues among many during this season and hence this signing could be seen as an advantegous one for the team as he does have some good experience and is being confident player without doubt. Taking account for financial differences between top 3 Istanbul club, this signing could be seen as best option. He would need time to get adapted which could be seen as only down side but when he does it would be expected for him to show some good experience due of high potentiality.

Without doubt Senol Gunes would be aiming for team to show much more attacking game and hence Banza would be playing a crucial role in this new team. 

Galatasaray signs Ali Efe Cordek until 2028

Galatasaray has signed young player from 3rd side team Kartal Bulvarspor Ali Efe Cordek until 2028 as there is expectation from player to provide similar development as did Kemal Akturkoglu.

It would be needed to be reminded that Kerem Akturkoglu who has joined Benfica last week, has also been coming from lower leagues and has shown incredible development at Galatasaray due of self will and belief among being at top club. Without doubt, Ali Efe Cordek will provide similar expectations as long as he would provide similar effort and belief to himself but he would need to do so if he wants to be successful at Galatasaray. It would be interesting to see how player would develop and how much effort he would be given to develop as strong player.

Even through not much known about player it would be expected for him to be focussed and aim to develop as strong player at the team in upcoming periods.
