The future of head coach İsmail Kartal at Süper Lig giant Fenerbahçe has once again become a topic of debate. Having led 2-0 and then drawing 2-2 in the Slavia Prague match increased the dose of criticism.
HIS FATE DEPENDS ON THE GALATASARAY DERBY
Kartal had previously resigned after the Roma match in the Champions League “on the condition that he would never return again,” but he continued in his role after President Aziz Yıldırım intervened. Now, it is being said that the result of the Galatasaray derby to be played on Monday will determine the coach’s fate.
MONTELLA AND CONTE VOICES
In the event of a possible departure, the two names Fenerbahçe would knock on the door of are Vincenzo Montella and Antonio Conte. Montella left the Turkish National Team last week, while 57-year-old Conte, who most recently coached Napoli, has also been out of work for about 6.5 months. Fenerbahçe will knock on the doors of the two coaches after a possible defeat in the Galatasaray derby.
