Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç and the club's former president Aziz Yıldırım are coming together. THEY WILL MEETAccording to the news from Yağız Sabuncuoğlu, Ali Koç and Aziz Yıldırım will meet in the coming days to discuss current issues and Fenerbahçe. The date of the meeting between Ali Koç and Aziz Yıldırım is expected to be clarified shortly. AZIZ YILDIRIM'S MESSAGEBefore the recent match against Başakşehir, Aziz Yıldırım made the following statement under the title "Fenerbahçe does not give up": "Recently, I have sadly witnessed that my name has been used on various platforms following the negative results our football team has achieved. First of all, I must state that the performance our football team has shown lately makes me unhappy, just like every one of our supporters. However, one thing that our community must never forget is that it is never too late for anything. In the past, for example, in the 2003-2004 season, our football team fell 8 points behind its closest rival and distanced itself from the championship race. However, during those days, we reached the championship together by maintaining the unity and solidarity of our community. In the 2010-2011 season, which is one of the most valuable championships in our glorious history, we also became champions by coming back from 9 points behind, and then we experienced the July 3rd Conspiracy. This year, our football team is not in a worse situation than it was back then. The point difference is not greater than it was then. Fenerbahçe's history is filled with many success stories where unity and solidarity are at the forefront. Because Fenerbahçe does not give up. Today is that day. Today is the day to unite, to support our team with all our strength, and to dedicate all our energy to this cause. I believe that every Fenerbahçe supporter has the right to criticize failure as much as to praise success, and I respect the criticisms. However, as a Fenerbahçe supporter, I do not find it appropriate to use Fenerbahçe as a material for internal club politics at this early stage of the 15th week. In this context, I am saddened by the fact that my name is involved in internal political considerations of the club. Fenerbahçe has an elected president and management today, and undoubtedly, they are dedicating their efforts for our team with all their goodwill. Our duty, as the unique community of Fenerbahçe, is to support our club and to stay away from any behavior that could harm our team's championship struggle. My family and I think this way and live this way. I also ask my valuable Fenerbahçe brothers to share this feeling and attitude with me. I hope that the match we will play today against İstanbul Başakşehir will be a turning point on our way to the championship. My young daughter Yaz, who has a big heart, will also be at the ceremony for this match. I wish that our victory will crown her excitement with happiness, and I wish our team success in all remaining matches."
