Samet Akaydin, who is expected to leave Fenerbahçe, may achieve a first after many years.

After the mistake he made in the Athletic Bilbao match, Samet Akaydin, who became the focus of reactions, decided to leave Fenerbahçe. A new development has occurred regarding the transfer of Samet, whose name has been linked with Trabzonspor.

IT WAS ALLEGED THAT HE SENT A MESSAGE TO TRABZONSPOR

Samet Akaydin, who is going through a difficult period at Fenerbahçe and is likely to leave during the transfer window, wants to go to Trabzonspor. It was claimed that the 30-year-old defender, who is originally from Trabzon, conveyed his desire to wear the burgundy-blue jersey to both Şenol Güneş and the management.

TRABZONSPOR IS INTERESTED

A new claim has emerged regarding Samet Akaydin, who is said to be looking for a club. According to Fanatik's report, the burgundy-blues are interested in Samet Akaydin, who has been approved by Şenol Güneş. It was emphasized that if Fenerbahçe requests a reasonable transfer fee, Trabzonspor wants to sign the experienced stopper.

A FIRST IN 7 YEARS COULD HAPPEN

Moreover, if Samet Akaydin's transfer to Trabzonspor takes place, the national player will be the first footballer to sign from the yellow-navy team to the burgundy-blue team after 7 years. The last player to transfer from Fenerbahçe to Trabzonspor was Volkan Şen at the beginning of the 2017-2018 season.

SAMET'S SEASON PERFORMANCE

Although he did not get a chance to play at the beginning of the season, after the problems in the stopper position, Samet Akaydin became the preferred choice over Becao by head coach Jose Mourinho. He has worn the yellow-navy jersey in 7 matches this season, 6 of which were in the starting eleven, and he celebrated a goal once. Samet, who has one more season left on his contract, is currently valued at 2 million euros.

WHAT DID MOURINHO SAY ABOUT SAMET?

Fenerbahçe's head coach Jose Mourinho stated in a press conference after the 2-0 loss to Athletic Bilbao that Samet made a mistake at the very beginning of the match, and every time he received the ball, a strong reaction arose. He said, "The team played well in the first half. I don't think the reaction shown to Samet affected the team. After we conceded the goal in the first half, we played well. We created chances. 1-0 was not a fair result, and 2-0 felt like a knife wound to our chest. But I don't think the reactions affected the team. These reactions are certainly sad because Samet is one of us. But I don't criticize what the fans did because they are the essence of this club. Samet didn't make the mistake; we did."

HE DEDICATED THE VICTORY TO SAMET

Additionally, after the 3-1 victory against RAMS Başakşehir, Mourinho spoke about Samet, who was booed and taken off the field in the Athletic Bilbao match and was not included in the squad by the coaching staff. He said, "I want to send a message to Samet. I want to dedicate my smallest contribution to today's victory to him. I saw a hurt man. We have one match left until the end of the year. We will have Çağlar, Djiku, and Yusuf available. We will see how Samet reacts. I have no problem playing young players. There is pressure in this club. If I were at Real Madrid, I would play Yusuf. If I were at Manchester United, I would play Yusuf, just like Scott McTominay. The player is mentally ready to cope with this pressure. That's why I trust my players."
