Technical Director Rıza Çalımbay, whose contract with Sivasspor expires at the end of the season, published a farewell message to the club.
In a post on his social media account, Çalımbay bid farewell to Sivasspor and wished them success in the new season. Starting his words by stating that Sivasspor is not just a club for him, the experienced coach said, "It is a strong community that I have great love and respect for, and it always holds a special place in my heart. Being a part of this community and fighting for it has always been a separate honor for me. During my time in charge, we experienced many special moments together. The most important of these is undoubtedly winning the Turkish Cup for the first time in our club's history and successfully representing our country in European competitions for three consecutive seasons.
These achievements are the shared effort and pride of the Sivasspor family and our fans. With little time left until the end of the season and during a difficult process, I took on the responsibility of leading the team again. Together with my team, we tried to do our best; our players who sweat on the field showed a great example of struggle. Unfortunately, it was not possible to achieve the results we aimed for. Such difficulties are inherent in football; what matters is to continue the fight without giving up. With my commitment and respect for Sivasspor, I thank the Sivasspor management who trusted me during this process, the players who fought on the field, and our valuable fans who stood by us even in tough days.
I sincerely believe that there is a future full of great successes ahead for Sivasspor. I am fully confident that this rooted community will achieve many more victories with unity and determination. I extend my heartfelt wishes for Sivasspor to always progress towards better and achieve the successes it deserves," he stated.
