Former referee Fırat Aydınus made a striking claim about referee Arda Kardeşler and the head of the Referees' Committee, Ferhat Gündoğdu. In a post on his social media account, Aydınus stated that a decision was made to suspend Arda Kardeşler from officiating and that he was informed of this situation.

In the match where Trabzonspor drew 1-1 with Gaziantep FK, the decision made by referee Arda Kardeşler sparked significant controversy. Kardeşler, who stopped a promising goal-scoring opportunity after a quick free kick taken by the Bordo-Mavililer, faced intense criticism from both the clubs and the football community.
While all these events continue to be a hot topic, a striking claim has come from former referee Fırat Aydınus regarding referee Arda Kardeşler and MHK President Ferhat Gündoğdu.
"A DECISION HAS BEEN MADE FOR HIM TO HANG UP HIS WHISTLE"
Aydınus stated in a social media post regarding the issue, "As of today, a decision has been made for Arda Kardeşler to hang up his whistle, and he has been informed."
Aydınus also added, "Additionally, the TFF President has requested the resignation of Ferhat Gündoğdu.. Gündoğdu, however, has mentioned the terms of the contract."
WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
It is expected that the TFF will clarify the developments regarding both Arda Kardeşler and Ferhat Gündoğdu in the near future.
