After Beşiktaş's defeat against Konyaspor, striking developments regarding head coach Sergen Yalçın are unfolding. It is claimed that the black-and-white manager has decided to leave his position at the end of the season.
CRISIS AFTER CUP ELIMINATION
Beşiktaş was eliminated from the Turkish Cup semi-final against Konyaspor after conceding a penalty goal in the 90+7th minute, and following the match, there were calls for Sergen Yalçın's resignation from the stands.
HE HAD SAID "I WILL QUIT IF THE FANS DON'T WANT ME"
In a previous statement, Sergen Yalçın had said, "I will leave my post when I hear at the stadium that the fans don't want me." It has been alleged that he decided to resign at the end of the season after remaining in charge for the remaining two matches.
THE MANAGEMENT'S DECISION IS THE SAME
Meanwhile, it has been reported that the Beşiktaş management does not intend to continue with the experienced coach in the new season, and a separation is expected at the end of the season.
STATEMENT FROM THE VICE PRESIDENT
Beşiktaş Vice President Murat Kılıç stated in an interview with A Spor, "We have no problem with Sergen Yalçın. He will pull himself together and we will continue on our way."
EUROPE PLAN CHANGED
With the elimination from the cup, Beşiktaş lost the chance to qualify for the Europa League via the play-off round, and it has been reported that the team will start the season early. The black-and-white team will compete in the Europa League or Conference League qualifiers depending on the outcome of the Turkish Cup.
MAJOR LOSS AT HOME
Beşiktaş, which dropped points in 10 of the 23 matches played at Tüpraş Stadium this season, has also faced criticism for its home performance.
OLD WORDS BACK ON THE AGENDA
After the increase in backlash, comments made by Sergen Yalçın during his time as a commentator have resurfaced on social media. Yalçın's words, "If you invest this much and can't even finish third in this league, then you are a failure," have been trending again.
