Following the parting of ways with İsmail Kartal at Fenerbahçe, while the search for a head coach continues, a striking claim has been made regarding Abdullah Avcı. It has been alleged that the experienced coach, who is said to be warm to taking charge of the yellow-navy team, is ready to sign a contract that will not bind the new management due to the election to be held in the summer months.
After İsmail Kartal's departure from Fenerbahçe, it is wondered who the new head coach will be. It was stated that some names in the yellow-navy management consider Abdullah Avcı, who won a championship with Trabzonspor and served for many years at Başakşehir, as the most suitable candidate under current conditions.
"I WILL MAKE THIS TEAM CHAMPION"
Abdullah Avcı held a meeting with Fenerbahçe executives on Tuesday evening. It was claimed that the experienced coach used the following statements in the meeting: "I will lift this team up and make it champion." It was also alleged that Avcı presented a comprehensive report to the yellow-navy management.
A GREAT CONVENIENCE FOR THE CONTRACT
According to the news in Fanatik, Abdullah Avcı is ready to provide a significant convenience regarding the contract, since a presidential election will be held at Fenerbahçe in the summer months.
It was stated that the experienced coach could sign a contract that would not bind the possible new management that will take office after Aziz Yıldırım's administration.
Thus, if a management change occurs in the summer months, the way will be open for the new president to make his own decision regarding the head coach.
HE ANALYZED ALL OF FENERBAHÇE'S MATCHES
It was claimed that Abdullah Avcı analyzed all the matches Fenerbahçe played this season and that he is quite eager to take a role in the yellow-navy team. While Avcı's name is being evaluated within the management, there is not yet a finalized decision regarding the head coach.
"I HAD WANTED VERY MUCH TO WORK AT FENERBAHÇE"
Abdullah Avcı had previously stated that he wanted to work at Fenerbahçe. The experienced coach had used the following statements about the Fenerbahçe possibility that did not materialize in the past:
"It somehow didn't happen, but at one point I wanted this very much: After Trabzonspor, I had wanted very much to work at Fenerbahçe. Why did I want it at that time? Two big and difficult communities had not been champions for a long time... After experiencing it with Trabzon, at that time I had wanted very much to experience it with Fenerbahçe as well."
