It was stated that Gaziantep FK will part ways with Romanian head coach Mirel Radoi, who was appointed with four matches left in the previous season, and Volkan Demirel will take over.
Exciting days are ahead at Gaziantep FK, a Trendyol Super League team, before the new season. In the red-and-black club, the departure of technical director Mirel Radoi is a matter of time.
POOR RESULTS TRIGGERED THE SEPARATION
After Burak Yılmaz's departure, Romanian coach Mirel Radoi, who took over the team with great hopes, failed to meet expectations. Having signed with Gaziantep FK with 4 weeks left in the league, Radoi could not experience the joy of victory in any of the 4 matches he led, and this performance caused concern among the management. Pressing the button due to consecutive unsuccessful results, the management decided to part ways before the season started.
VOLKAN DEMIREL IS AT THE TOP OF THE LIST
The management of Gaziantep FK has also determined their new direction regarding the technical director. It was stated that young coach Volkan Demirel is at the top of the red-and-blacks' list of technical director candidates. It was mentioned that the Gaziantep FK management will have an official meeting with Volkan Demirel in the coming days.
