Beşiktaş's German goalkeeper Alexander Nübel made statements about his daily life in Istanbul, and also complained about the traffic congestion in the city.
''TRAFFIC IN ISTANBUL IS REALLY BAD''
Nübel, who stated that he drove a car in his first period after coming to Istanbul but gave up driving after the traffic increased with the opening of schools, said, "Traffic in Istanbul is really bad... At first, I even drove the car myself. At that time, schools were on holiday, it was manageable. Now schools have opened and you really feel the traffic density. It's really hard, you can get angry."
''I LOVE LENTIL SOUP
The successful goalkeeper, describing his daily routine off the pitch, told of his fondness for lentil soup and commented, "Almost every day I walk by the sea and drink tea. To be honest, I have really gotten into the world of tea. That's my routine after training. I enjoy these moments and try to explore Istanbul. Turkish food is very delicious. Maybe it's not always the healthiest, but it is really delicious. People here know how to cook very well, which is great. I recently went to a very good restaurant and ate Adana kebab. I love lentil soup."
