Galatasaray's head coach Okan Buruk, who declared the championship two weeks before the end of the Trendyol Super League, became the 3rd coach with the most championships in the league's history.
Entering the 36th week of the league 8 points ahead of its closest follower Fenerbahçe, the yellow-red team would have declared its championship if it had earned 1 point. Galatasaray, who hosted Bellona Kayserispor and won 3-0, declared its championship two weeks before the end.
With this result, "Cimbom" reached a happy ending in the league, finishing first for the 3rd consecutive time and a total of 25 times. Okan Buruk increased the number of championship badges in his coaching career to 4.
Previously, Buruk won the championship in the 2019-2020 season while coaching İstanbul Başakşehir, and lifted the trophy with Galatasaray in the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 seasons.
FATİH TERİM AT THE TOP
Head coach Fatih Terim, who has won the championship 8 times in the Super League, holds the record in this area.
The experienced coach celebrated championships in his four terms with Galatasaray in the 1996-1997, 1997-1998, 1998-1999, 1999-2000, 2011-2012, 2012-2013, 2017-2018, and 2018-2019 seasons.
The second name with the most championships after Terim in the league is Ahmet Suat Özyazıcı, who won 4 times. Özyazıcı clinched the championship with Trabzonspor in the 1975-1976, 1976-1977, 1979-1980, and 1983-1984 seasons.
Okan Buruk, who finished the league at the top for the fourth time, caught up with Ahmet Suat Özyazıcı, surpassing Mustafa Denizli, Gordon Milne, Brian Birch, and Christoph Daum, all of whom have three championships. Buruk, who equalized the number of championships with Özyazıcı, became the 3rd coach to win the Super League 4 times.
3RD COACH TO WIN 3 TIMES IN A ROW
Okan Buruk earned the title of the 4th coach to achieve this in the Super League by winning 3 times in a row.
Buruk, who led the yellow-red team to the championship in the last 3 seasons, became the fourth coach to win the championship three times in a row after Brian Birch, Gordon Milne, and Fatih Terim.
English coach Birch won the championship three times in a row with Galatasaray in the 1970-71, 1971-72, and 1972-73 seasons, while another Englishman, Milne, won consecutively with Beşiktaş in the 1989-90, 1990-91, and 1991-92 seasons. Fatih Terim achieved significant success in Turkish football by winning the championship in the 4 seasons from 1996 to 2000 with Galatasaray.
