The 37-year-old goalkeeper of the yellow-and-red team, who stayed on the pitch for 90 minutes in all 11 matches in the Trendyol 1. Lig, stated: "We have a group of players with a lot of character. That's why our jobs become a little easier. There is unity and solidarity in the team, and I hope this continues."

The experienced goalkeeper of Metro Holding Kayserispor, the leader of the Trendyol 1st League, Gökhan Değirmenci, did not concede a goal in 7 of the 11 matches in which he played 90 minutes in the league.

HE DID NOT LET HIS OPPONENTS SCORE IN 7 MATCHES

The yellow-red team, which collected 26 points with 8 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in 11 matches in the league, maintains its place at the top. The Kayseri representative celebrated a goal 24 times in these matches but could not prevent 7 goals in its net. The 37-year-old Gökhan Değirmenci, who started in the first XI in all of these matches and is the player with the most playing time on the team, kept a clean sheet in 7 of the 11 matches he played.

Gökhan Değirmenci told an AA reporter that they made a good start to the league.

Noting that they experienced unfortunate point losses after the wins in the first 3 weeks, Gökhan said, “We won 5 matches in a row after one defeat and one draw. In the last match, we could actually have won against Batman Petrolspor. We finished with a draw. There is a Kayserispor that has collected 16 points in the last 6 weeks. I think our game as a team is good. We put forward a good game both defensively and offensively.”

“THERE IS UNITY AND TOGETHERNESS IN THE TEAM”

Drawing attention to the fact that they are the team that has scored the most goals in the league as well as doing good work defensively, Gökhan Değirmenci spoke as follows:

“We did not concede a goal in seven matches. I played here for 4.5 seasons before. I also played for Kayseri Erciyesspor for 1.5 years. I know this club very well. Our management also wanted me to be a mentor to the team. To ensure we bond as soon as possible, I tell my friends about the club's structure, the community and the city. We have a squad with a lot of character. Therefore, our job becomes a little easier. There is unity and togetherness in the team, and I hope it continues.”

Touching on the match they will play away against Orfa Yapı Pendikspor on Sunday, October 25 in the 12th week of the league, Gökhan said, “Every match is difficult and the Pendikspor match will also be difficult. We are preparing to get three points. We have a good record away from home. We want to continue this. We will face a good team. Also, every team that plays the leader comes onto the pitch with extra concentration. We are aware of this, and we want to reflect our own game on the pitch and return with 3 points.”
