''WE HAVE AGREED WITH GÖKHAN ALAŞ''
Çakır stated that they have brought Gökhan Alaş to lead the team in place of Hugo Almeida, saying, "The cost of Hugo Almeida and his team is 40 thousand Euros per month. We are paying 40 thousand Euros a month to a man who has earned 2 points in 9 matches. As of yesterday, we terminated his contract. We have agreed with Gökhan Alaş for a monthly salary of 75 thousand TL. There is a debt of 2 million from the period of Nihat Tazearslan at the hotel where the team is camped in Mersin. We have saved 2 million TL in 18 days. We have received a promise to play the match against Pendikspor on November 22 in Hatay. They asked us for a relocation fee of 550 thousand dollars. In this regard, our Mayor of Hatay, Mehmet Öntürk, said he would convey it to our Minister of Youth and Sports, Osman Aşkın Bak. We need our Governor of Hatay, Mustafa Masatlı, and our Mayor of Hatay, Mehmet Öntürk. Our team does not have a jersey sponsor," he said.
