There is no longer a possibility for Cenk Tosun to return to Fenerbahçe after being excluded from the squad. It has been reported that head coach Tedesco is not inclined to forgive the player, while it is learned that Super Lig teams Eyüpspor, Kasımpaşa, and Antalyaspor are interested in the 34-year-old striker. Cenk Tosun is expected to leave Fenerbahçe in January.
While the future of Cenk Tosun and İrfan Can Kahveci, who were suspended from the squad about a month and a half ago at Fenerbahçe, remains uncertain, the process regarding the two players has now reached the final decision stage. Following the crises that occurred after the Samsunspor match, both the management and the technical team are carefully evaluating the situation, and significant developments are taking place regarding their futures in the team.
THE BACKGROUND OF THE SUSPENSION DECISION
According to claims, a dispute occurred between İrfan Can Kahveci and Archie Brown during the Samsunspor match, and it was reported that Cenk Tosun returned to the bench angrily and threw his vest after not being substituted into the game. It is stated that head coach Domenico Tedesco and his team took note of these incidents and felt discomfort from a disciplinary perspective. These developments laid the groundwork for the suspension of the two footballers.
CLEAR RESPONSE FROM TEDESCO
It has been suggested that Fenerbahçe's management communicated to Tedesco that the two players could be forgiven following the victories in recent weeks, but the young coach rejected this suggestion by saying, "I don't need them for now." Thus, the possibility of forgiveness has been eliminated, and attention has turned to the decision to be made regarding the players.
İRFAN CAN AWAITS A DECISION
During his suspension, İrfan Can Kahveci continued his individual training and expressed his desire to return to the team in a statement made after the national team match. It is reported that a meeting will be held with President Sadettin Saran, and the decision regarding the national player is expected to be announced after the Galatasaray derby to be played on December 1. Depending on this decision, İrfan Can will either return to the team or transfer to a new team in January.
THREE SUITORS FOR CENK TOSUN
On the Cenk Tosun front, the process is progressing much more clearly. While there has been no response from Fenerbahçe to the player, it has emerged that three clubs from the Süper Lig are interested in the experienced striker. According to a report by Takvim, Eyüpspor, Kasımpaşa, and Antalyaspor have stepped in for Cenk Tosun, who was previously linked with Neftçi Baku. It is widely believed that the 34-year-old forward will leave the yellow-navy team in January following his suspension period.
