Sergen Yalçın, who is in his second term as the head coach of Beşiktaş, collected 14 points in the first 10 matches of the Super League, falling short of his performance in the 2019-2020 season. Yalçın also became one of the coaches who collected the least points among those who have managed Beşiktaş in the last three seasons, alongside Fernando Santos.
Beşiktaş is currently in 6th place in the Trendyol Super League, having collected 17 points from 11 matches with 5 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses. The black-and-white team, which has shown an inconsistent performance this season, has not benefited from the change in coaching staff. Starting the season with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the Eagles defeated Eyüpspor 2-1 in the first match of the season under the Norwegian coach, but parted ways with Solskjaer after an early exit from European competitions.
COULD NOT START THE SECOND TERM WELL
After bidding farewell to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the second term of Sergen Yalçın began for the black-and-white team. The 52-year-old coach, who managed Beşiktaş between the 2019-2020 and 2021-2022 seasons, achieved 1 Super League and 1 Turkish Cup championship during that period.
However, Sergen Yalçın's new adventure with the black-and-whites did not start as desired. The experienced coach has collected 14 points from 10 league matches this season, with 4 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses. Yalçın, who took over in the second half of the 2019-2020 season, had achieved 20 points in the first 10 matches of the Super League during that period, with 6 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, quickly revitalizing the team and gaining the trust of the fans.
This season, the black-and-whites have struggled to achieve consistency in both gameplay and results. In the first 10 matches under Yalçın's management, Beşiktaş scored 16 goals but conceded 14. In the same period during Sergen Yalçın's first term, the team scored 20 goals and allowed only 9 goals from opponents.
TIED ON POINTS WITH FERNANDO SANTOS
This season, Sergen Yalçın's performance has equaled the statistics of Fernando Santos among the coaches who have worked at Beşiktaş in the last 3 seasons. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had collected 17 points with 5 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses in the first 10 matches of the league in the 2024-2025 season.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst also achieved 20 points with 6 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in the 10 matches he managed as the black-and-white team's coach in the same season. Fernando Santos, on the other hand, remained at 14 points with 4 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses in the 2023-2024 season.
