Galatasaray Head Coach Okan Buruk made striking statements to the Demirören News Agency regarding the current agenda.

''THE HARDEST WAS THE LAST SEASON''

Okan Buruk answered the question about which of his 4 championships was the most difficult, saying, ''Each season has its own story. Every year you experience a different scenario. You have different rivals, different players. Changes occur. Each year we set a goal, actually. This year's goal is also very clear. If you ask which was the hardest, last season, with the Champions League, truly being champions in the league and leading the entire league was the hardest in this sense.''

''HE WILL SIGN WITHIN 1-2 DAYS''

Providing information about the transfer process of Mario Lemina, Okan Buruk stated, "Lemina will hopefully sign within 1-2 days. He is training individually here and has not yet joined the field sessions."

''THERE ARE MANY SUITORS''

Drawing attention to the high number of teams interested in Singo, the successful coach Okan Buruk said, ''Singo is a good player. He is a player we admire and want. He is one of the important players we can find in that profile. There are many who want him, and many teams are suitors. If he had continued without injury in the World Cup, it could have been a different development for him. We are pleased with him. I think it will be a good season for him.''
