Before the presidential election at Fenerbahçe, a surprise involving Jorge Jesus came to the agenda. Aziz Yıldırım, who was reportedly considering appointing Aykut Kocaman as the team's head coach, is claimed to want to bring back the Portuguese manager, whose contract with Al-Nassr is set to expire, to lead the team again.
As the presidential election approaches at Fenerbahçe, the coaching agenda heats up, and the Jorge Jesus claim draws attention. It is alleged that presidential candidate Aziz Yıldırım has revisited the Portuguese coach, who previously managed the yellow-navy team during Ali Koç's tenure.
CONTRACT WITH AL-NASSR ENDING
According to claims, Jorge Jesus's contract with Al-Nassr will expire on June 30, prompting action from the Fenerbahçe front. It is said that Aziz Yıldırım may re-establish contact with Jesus, one of the coaches he has wanted to work with for years.
The Portuguese coach had earned the admiration of a significant portion of the fans with the football he implemented during his tenure under Ali Koç.
AZIZ YILDIRIM'S LIST INCLUDES MANY NAMES
It is alleged that Aziz Yıldırım's camp is in contact not only with Jorge Jesus but also with names like Mark van Bommel. Meanwhile, it is stated that if a local coach is preferred, the first candidate is Aykut Kocaman.
While it is expressed that the experienced coach is ready for the role, it is also claimed that Aziz Yıldırım wants to consider Kocaman as the football branch supervisor in the management.
ISMAIL KARTAL MENTIONED IN HAKAN SAFI'S CAMP
It is reported that presidential candidate Hakan Safi's first choice for a local coach is İsmail Kartal. However, it is noted that Safi's priority is a foreign coach, with names like Filipe Luis and Sebastian Hoeness also on the agenda.
