Fenerbahçe's Spanish star Marco Asensio made special statements to A Spor. The star player made striking remarks about the Galatasaray derby to be played in two weeks.
'WE MUST CONTINUE LIKE THIS'
Speaking about Fenerbahçe's recent rise, Asensio said, "When you come to a new club, there are new beginnings. A new coach, new friends... You need to adapt. The way to do this is to spend time together. Matches, training... You get the chance to get to know your teammates and your coach. What does the coach want from you, what are his principles, these take time. This process evolves for the better with matches. We are currently progressing well. We are very happy with the last matches we played and the victories. I am in good physical condition. I feel good. We won the last matches and achieved good results. We must continue like this to move towards our goals."
"IT SHOWS IN THE MATCHES PLAYED"
The Spanish player also commented on the Turkish League, saying, "The Turkish League is at a good level. Every match is actually tough. There are physically and tactically strong teams. The teams we play against are competitive, and the matches are highly competitive. Honestly, I must say that this league is at a good level. This is also evident in the matches played."
"THEN I SHOULD SCORE AGAINST G.SARAY"
In response to the question, "There is a tradition in Fenerbahçe, a true Fenerbahçe fan is considered someone who scores against Galatasaray. What do you think about this tradition and the derby?" Asensio replied, "The tradition is nice, then I should score against Galatasaray. It will be a tough match. However, we have matches to play before that. There is the Rizespor match first. We will concentrate on that match. We need to take it step by step. First Rizespor, then Ferencváros, and then Galatasaray. The Galatasaray derby is very important, we are aware of that. It is very important for us, the fans, and the community. We need to progress step by step. We want to win these matches. We must win these matches to reach the desired position in the league."
