Trabzonspor President Ertuğrul Doğan made very clear statements regarding transfer activities and named names during a live broadcast. Doğan said, "Trabzonspor can pay 20 million euros for a player if necessary, and we will do it if needed. We signed an experienced player like Ruslan Malinovskyi, and there will be other names as well."
Trabzonspor Club President Ertuğrul Doğan, who aims for the championship in the upcoming season, made striking statements about the ongoing transfer efforts.
"THE NUMBER WILL BE HIGHER"
Speaking to HT Spor, Ertuğrul Doğan said, "We thought we would make 6-7 transfers, but the number will be higher.... It's very important for players to want to live here, the economy is very important. We prepared well in advance. The names being discussed are correct. We will complete them soon. We are making these transfers to be in the title race. Let our fans not withhold their support from Fatih Tekke and the team!"
"IF ONANA DOESN'T..."
Speaking about Andre Onana's future, Ertuğrul Doğan stated, "We talk to Onana every day, we won't have financial difficulties. He is a quality player, he liked the city, the team, and the people. But everyone has their own life and plans. I don't think we will face a setback with Onana. If we do, we will get someone of the same level."
"THERE WILL BE 8-9 TRANSFERS NEXT WEEK"
Stating that the transfers will happen one after another next week, Ertuğrul Doğan said, "The transfer season hasn't opened yet, there is no movement among our rivals! We will reach 8-9 next week! We are moving fast. Everyone is on vacation, I don't think there will be any problems."
"WE HAVE OFFERS FOR 7 PLAYERS"
Commenting on the names on his list and offers for his players, the Trabzonspor president evaluated, "Viktor Tsygankov is one of the players on our list. Isak Vural is not on the agenda. We have offers for 7 players, but we don't plan to sell everyone! 1-2 players might leave. We saw our deficiencies and had problems last year. There could be domestic alternatives to increase the number. We will play 50-60 matches. There are offers for Felipe Augusto from Zenit and other teams."
"WE HAVE TAKEN MALINOVSKYI"
Announcing the transfer live, Ertuğrul Doğan said, "Last year, there were names for whom we gave 6-7 million euros. We are going above that, depending on the players' potential... Trabzonspor can also give 20 million euros for a player! If necessary, we will do that. There will be a transfer around 10 million euros tomorrow or so. The market abroad is clear! The issue is not giving money, but getting efficiency. We have taken an experienced player like Ruslan Malinovskyi, there will be other names as well."
