It has been revealed why Cenk Tosun did not shake hands with TFF President Mehmet Büyükekşi.

Our National Team, which was eliminated by the Netherlands in the quarter-finals of the 2024 European Football Championship, returned to the country. Cenk Tosun, the striker of the Crescent-Star team, explained why he did not shake hands with Mehmet Büyükekşi, the President of the Turkish Football Federation, who shook hands with the players during the National Team camp.

"WE HAD A CONVERSATION JUST A MINUTE AGO"

Speaking to Ekol TV, Cenk said, "Was it a conscious decision not to shake hands with the President? What happened at that moment?" When asked, he replied, "It wasn't a conscious decision. I had a conversation with the President just a minute before that. That's why I went around from behind a minute later to avoid shaking hands again. It was misunderstood. I wouldn't disrespect anyone like that."

WILL HE STAY AT BEŞİKTAŞ?

The experienced striker, whose contract with Beşiktaş has expired, was asked, "Will you continue with Beşiktaş?" He answered, "I enjoyed the tournament. Now I will enjoy my vacation with my family. After that, I will make my decision. As you know, I am currently a free agent. Of course, I would like to stay at Beşiktaş, but first I will think about my vacation, I will go on vacation with my family."

WHAT HAPPENED?

National football player Cenk Tosun ignored TFF President Mehmet Büyükekşi, who greeted the players one by one in front of the hotel where the team stayed before the quarter-final match of our National Team in the 2024 European Football Championship against the Netherlands. The experienced forward went around Büyükekşi and headed towards the team bus without shaking hands with him. Cenk's moments quickly became a topic of discussion.
