Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç made statements regarding the agenda in a program he attended on TRT Spor. Ali Koç also responded to the question, "Will you be signing a striker like Victor Osimhen? Was he offered to you at the beginning of the season?"
''I RECEIVED ABUSE BECAUSE OF OSIMHEN''
In his statement, Ali Koç said, ''Osimhen is a special player and a player above the level of Turkey. He was never offered to us. That day, I landed in London from New York in the early morning. I was tired, fell asleep, and I was bombarded with abusive messages. Osimhen was going to Saudi Arabia. At the last minute, the President of Napoli raised the price, and the amount was not large. The Saudis backed out, Europe was closed, and only Turkey was left. It was destined for Galatasaray."
''WE NEED A STRIKER''
President Ali Koç also commented on the upcoming season, saying, "Our strikers did not score few goals, but we need a striker. Victor Osimhen is in a different category, and he only comes once in 40 years."
