The Fenerbahçe Club made a statement regarding the alleged discussion about the victory bonus that took place among the players on the plane after the match against Trabzonspor, which was won 3-2 in the 22nd week of the Super League.
''OUR PATHS HAVE SEPARATED''
In the statement, it was noted that the dialogues in the footage shared with the public were served with a different purpose, detached from their context, while the claims of a discussion regarding the victory bonus were categorically denied. The statement said, "We have separated from the person who carried a conversation within the family outside of its intended purpose."
Here is Fenerbahçe's statement:
''Recently, we have seen that some expressions regarding the dialogues that allegedly took place on the plane after the Trabzon match about a month ago have been served with a different purpose, detached from their context.
The dialogue in question is part of a very natural communication that occurs within the family, with our players, and is something that can happen in every team due to the nature of professional football.
Such conversations and discussions that sometimes occur at a humorous level are normal within football. Drawing different meanings about our team from these spontaneous dialogues is contrary to the nature of football.
We will not allow our players to be targeted through such headlines.
This team has repeatedly shown what wearing the Fenerbahçe jersey means through its struggle, unity, and character displayed on the field throughout the season.
Opening this effort and stance to discussion based on a single headline is unfair to the players who wear this jersey.
Fenerbahçe is a whole with its technical staff, players, and management. No initiative targeting this integrity will be allowed.
Since the day we took office, a planned bonus system has been implemented in our club, which has been determined in mutual agreement with our players and continues within the same framework. All payments are made in accordance with the established system, on time, and without any deficiencies.
Necessary sensitivity has been shown against approaches that lead to the deterioration of our players through such headlines; we have separated from the person who carried a conversation within the family outside of its intended purpose.
The sole focus of our football team is to continue our struggle in the strongest way possible, under the leadership of our coach Domenico Tedesco, together with our players, in line with our upcoming matches and goals.
During this process, our faith and support for our coach and players are complete.''
