Following the defeat against Gençlerbirliği, claims that Fenerbahçe President Aziz Yıldırım issued stern warnings to the team and that 4 players were left out of the squad have begun to be discussed in the sports community. However, as of yet, there has been no official statement from the club regarding these 4 players being excluded from the squad.
Fenerbahce's 2-1 defeat away to Genclerbirligi in the first week of the Super League dampened spirits in the yellow-navy camp. Following the defeat, it was claimed that President Aziz Yildirim met with head coach Ismail Kartal and Oguz Cetin, expressing his discomfort with the team's level of effort in harsh words.
ALLEGATION OF 4 PLAYERS BEING DROPPED FROM THE SQUAD
Following these developments, allegations emerged that 4 players were dropped from the squad. However, a current scan found no official Fenerbahce statement or information confirmed by reliable sources verifying that 4 players were dropped after the Genclerbirligi defeat. Therefore, this development is not a confirmed decision at this stage but stands out as an allegation.
