Fenerbahçe presidential candidate Aziz Yıldırım announced that they have brought club legend Oğuz Çetin to lead the football structure. Pointing out that the "football mind" will work with the management, Yıldırım said, "Good coaches and good players are emerging from Sakarya. They have taken roles at Fenerbahçe. Our subject is the football mind, and we have appointed Oğuz Çetin for this. Now he will form it."
Fenerbahçe Club presidential candidate Aziz Yıldırım, who gathered with congress members and fans in the meeting hall of a catering company in Düzce, stated that he has many friends and acquaintances in Düzce, where he spent his childhood.
"WE WILL STRUGGLE TO STOP THE BAD TREND"
Yıldırım, expressing his happiness at bringing the facilities in Topuk Plateau to the city where his memories reside, said, "We will all struggle together to stop this bad trend, God willing. We must all be in unity and solidarity; that is our expectation from you. Also, next Sunday, please come and cast your votes. I love you, thank you."
"WE APPOINTED OĞUZ ÇETİN"
Later, meeting with congress members and fans at the Sakarya Fenerbahçeliler Association, Yıldırım stated that they appointed Oğuz Çetin as the head of "football intelligence," saying, "Good coaches and good players are emerging from Sakarya. They have served at Fenerbahçe. Our issue is football intelligence, and we have appointed Oğuz Çetin for this. He will now form it, but it's not very appropriate to make these formations before winning the election because we are not in office."
“WE WILL BUY WHATEVER IS NEEDED, WE WILL BE A GOOD TEAM”
Pointing out that the "football intelligence" will work with the directors, Yıldırım continued: "They are already reviewing currently. They will come to the directors and say, 'We need this player here, we can come to an agreement with him,' and we will solve it that way. We will buy whatever is needed, we will be a good team. Not just to win the Turkish league, but to progress in Europe and qualify for the Champions League. I don't have social media; I don't bother with any of that. My mind is greater than theirs. I have more experience than all those who write and draw there, in terms of football. No one is as experienced as I am, and I don't need their ideas."
MAHMUT USLU: WE WILL SAY 'STOP' TO GALATASARAY'S CHAMPIONSHIPS
Mahmut Uslu, who is on Yıldırım's list, stated that they will bring back the longed-for championships and said, "We will say 'stop' to Galatasaray's championships, and we will become champions. For that, we will all support Aziz Yıldırım, our president, our leader together."
When reminded that the file regarding the armed attack on the Fenerbahçe team bus in Trabzon-Sürmene on April 4, 2015, after the Rizespor match, was taken up again by the Ministry of Justice, Uslu said that whoever was responsible at that time would all account for it.
Uslu, arguing that Yıldırım's election as Fenerbahçe president would be a very important move for Turkish football, concluded his words as follows: "I believe we will do our best. When we say 'the establishment,' we won't just talk abstractly; we will look into what it is. Which one, who is doing what, what is being done? Of course, we are not completely disconnected; we look at events like a fan like you. In the last 8 years, many teams have had their rights violated due to mistakes. There are those who have been relegated. Not only championships; in the leagues, the rights of those who have been relegated are also being violated. That's why we believe we will be beneficial."
