SERDAL ADALI AND GÜRKAN AKSOY ARE COMPETING



The current president Serdal Adalı and Gürkan Aksoy are competing for the presidency at the general assembly. A total of 27,588 members who have paid their dues by the end of working hours on December 31, 2024, will be able to vote at the general assembly.



STATEMENTS BY PRESIDENT SERDAL ADALI



"WE ARE HOLDING ELECTIONS FOR THE 3RD TIME IN THE LAST YEAR, THIS SITUATION SHOULD BE QUESTIONED"



"This morning, as I came to this hall, I realized once again a reality. We are gathering for elections for the 3rd time in the last year. This situation should be questioned by our community. With the decision of our general assembly, we will put an end to uncertainty processes and bring stability to our Beşiktaş. I congratulate Mr. Gürkan Aksoy for his participation and courage in this race, and I wish him success."



"WE HAVE ENTERED ONE OF THE MOST TURBULENT PERIODS"



"We have entered one of the most turbulent and difficult periods in our history. It has only been 120 days since we received our mandate. Unfortunately, during these 4 months, we did not only fight for on-field results. The mental and psychological state of the Beşiktaş community was beyond the on-field results. The traces we are trying to erase are not just from a few bad months or a few lost matches. The state of aimlessness had permeated every corner of the club, from its players to its fans. In these conditions, directing people towards a goal became our primary objective. We can see that these changes have started in every corner of our club. The topics discussed in Beşiktaş have changed one by one. News that should never be associated with Beşiktaş was making headlines every day. Official documents of Beşiktaş had started to circulate on television and social media. The president was working separately, the vice president separately, the managers separately, and the sports directors separately. At the point we have reached in 4 months, discussions have begun on which positions need to be transferred, how we can become champions next year, and how we will get out of the Banks Association. This situation is the biggest indicator that our community has started to rise."



"WE WILL SEE TOGETHER"



"The Beşiktaş jersey deserves to be represented by the best players in our country and the world. We are among those who know this best. We will see together how we will elevate our Beşiktaş with financial and sporting moves."



"WE HAVE A FOOTBALL MIND EQUIVALENT TO THE WORLD'S CLUBS"



"Right now, we have a football mind equivalent to the biggest clubs in the world. From the next season onwards, we will watch a Beşiktaş that has laid the foundation of such a football mind. The right coach, the right administrative staff, the right players. We have started to gradually achieve this in our football department. Next, we need to develop our athlete roster and raise the energy of our community. We have always said that we need 3 transfer periods. Despite our planned and programmed progress, those who use and feed social media trolls claim that Beşiktaş is not well managed. They are trying to drag the community into chaos again. I do not associate those who are lying in wait with Beşiktaş or the logic of being a Beşiktaş fan. The culture of 'send this away, bring that' has forced us to start from scratch. What has happened and the point we have reached already tells everything."



"THERE ARE STILL THOSE WHO FIGHT THEIR EGOS"



"There are still those who fight their egos, who put their personal ambitions before Beşiktaş. There are those who wish for Beşiktaş to fail so that opportunities arise for them. There are still those who work behind the scenes. This is such a group that they have started to prepare the ground by saying that if the desired squad is not established today, there will be a new congress and a new extraordinary election in November. Their concern is not Beşiktaş. Their only aim is to gain a corner. The conscience of this community will never forgive them."



"THEY WILL NOT ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS"



"Beşiktaş should not be a community where congress calculations are made every six months, agendas emerge, and management changes are discussed. Those who create a source of profit for themselves through Beşiktaş, those who are waiting for failure will not achieve their goals. The era of those who have turned the election environment in Beşiktaş into a sector will come to an end today, never to reopen. Our community will say yes to stability today."



"SOME WERE COMPLETELY ABSENT"



"I regret to say that we saw during the capital increase process that we have not yet reached the desired level of unity and solidarity. While we were taking an important step towards economic independence, we expected more support from my esteemed Beşiktaş elders and businessmen. I believe they expected us to buy all the shares in the market as management. Should we take the blame for the record debts they incurred in a short time, or did they not see the value in buying Beşiktaş shares? They may have also been affected by the loss of reputation we have experienced in recent years. When Beşiktaş's interests are at stake, unfortunately, we did not see anyone in the open. Our community will never forget those who wrestle in secret and how they hide."



"WE WILL MAKE THE LARGEST DEBT CLOSURE TRANSACTION"



"With the income we obtained from the capital increase process, we will carry out the largest debt closure transaction in history. At the same time, we will alleviate our interest burden. We may not be able to completely close our debt, but there is no deviation from our target. We will close our debt to the Banks Association as soon as possible."



"THEY ARE IN A STATE OF SHAMELESSNESS"



"They are trying to spread the word that the president should make sacrifices. Look, look, look! Look at those who say this to me through social media; one has made a transfer and left, the other has incurred 150 million euros in debt in 11 months and disappeared. More and more! Without shame, they are in a state of shamelessness, saying 'the man promised to leave the Banks Association in May, let the rest be covered from his own pocket.' While saying these, they forget who they are facing. The sacrifices that no one has been able to approach until today, I made for Beşiktaş."



"WE HAVE MADE VERY IMPORTANT PROGRESS"



"In recent days, we have made very important progress for our new facilities in 5 different districts of Istanbul and in Izmir. These facilities will serve under the emblem of our club, in line with our sporting needs and the requirements of you, our valued congress members."



"OUR COUNTRY'S SPORTS NEEDS A COMPETITIVE AND WINNING BEŞİKTAŞ"



"We will show our reaction to the two-team football environment designed in our country in recent years, with our game on the field and our behavior off the field. Not only ours, but the country's sports needs a competitive and winning Beşiktaş."



BEŞİKTAŞ PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE GÜRSOY AKSOY'S STATEMENTS



"WE WILL TAKE BACK BEŞİKTAŞ"



"We will not reconcile with those who brought Beşiktaş to this state; we will hold them accountable. We will take back Beşiktaş. We are the silenced voice and suppressed will of Beşiktaş. Beşiktaş will rise with us. If we are not the winners, our community will be the loser.

"We shout that enough is enough. It's either change or collapse!"



"WE ARE HERE TO BREAK THE UNFAIR GAME"



"We are here to break the unfair game. We always believe in the democracy of Beşiktaş. We defend that every election of our great Beşiktaş should be democratic. No one can take away our right to vote and be elected with authoritarian and capitalist projects. Long live Mustafa Kemal, long live the republic, long live our selfless struggle for Beşiktaş."
