In the 4th week of the UEFA Conference League, RAMS Başakşehir will host the Moldovan team Petrocub on Wednesday. The head coach Çağdaş Atan stated that they are going through a bad period and that they will start to rise by winning the match. Atan also announced that Berkay Özcan has been excluded from the squad.

"WE WANT TO RETURN TO THE HABIT OF WINNING"

Speaking at a press conference held at Başakşehir Fatih Terim Stadium, where the match will be played, Atan said, "It is obvious that we are not going through a very good period. We are going through 2 months filled with disappointment that do not suit us at all, which we did not expect, but it is time to get back up. Sometimes you need to bend to jump, but we have bent a little too much. I believe we will jump as well as we did last year. We want to return to the habit of winning with this match," he expressed.

"WE MADE SOME DECISIONS AT HOME"

Atan, who conveyed that they have no thoughts other than winning, continued as follows;

"We want to achieve our goals until the mid-season by winning. We have two goals. The first is to finish in the top 24 in Europe and qualify for the playoffs, and the second is to be in a position where we can increase our pace in the second half without falling too far from the top 4, at least in the top 6. We have 9 beautiful matches ahead of us. I believe in my players. We made some decisions at home. I believe we will take the 3 points with a good game."

BERKAY ÖZCAN EXCLUDED FROM THE SQUAD

Çağdaş Atan expressed that Berkay Özcan will no longer be with them. In response to a question about the decisions made within the team, Atan said, "I wasn't going to say this, but Berkay Özcan will no longer be with us after this process. This is my wish and a joint decision we made after consulting with the management. Secondly, we are a club of 50-60 people who love each other very much. We are this many, but we are a very big club. We know that we need to react. We have been consulting, talking, and holding meetings for the last 2 days. The energy I have received indicates that the decisions we made will reflect very positively on the team. This process has been good for us to see our friends. Sometimes you need situations like this, but it has taken a bit long for us. I can clearly say that we are the favorites for this match. It is a good match to catch a rise, a right opponent," he replied.

BERKAY'S PERFORMANCE

Berkay Özcan has played in 20 matches for Başakşehir this season. The 26-year-old midfielder started 12 matches in the starting 11 and scored 1 goal. Berkay has a contract with the Istanbul team until 2027.

PELKAS: WE MUST SHOW OUR STANCE ON THE FIELD

Dimitris Pelkas, the Greek player of RAMS Başakşehir, stated that they will be playing a very important match and that they absolutely want to win. Pelkas conveyed that they need to give everything on the field, saying, "It is a very important match. We need to be on the field with our full strength, and I can promise that. If we want to continue in Europe, we need to show our stance on the field."
