The former national football player Semih Şentürk, who experienced the top scorer title at Fenerbahçe, has been let go from his job as a commentator at Sky Sports. It is claimed that the experienced football figure's departure was influenced by the false story he told about Sergen Yalçın.
The former national football player Semih Şentürk's job at Sky Sports, where he served as a commentator, has been terminated. Semih Şentürk, who stepped down from his position in the Fenerbahçe U19 Team at the beginning of the season to pursue a career in sports commentary, had his departure announcement made by the institution he last worked for.
CHANNEL ANNOUNCED THE SEPARATION
Sky Sports announced on their social media accounts, "We have mutually agreed to part ways with Semih Şentürk, who has been with us for his valuable comments. As the Sky Sports family, we thank 'Striker' Semih Şentürk for all his efforts to date and wish him success in his career."
UNREAL SERGEN YALÇIN STORY CAME TO AN END
However, an allegation arose regarding Semih Şentürk's departure. Semih Şentürk's statement in a program a few weeks ago about Sergen Yalçın, "Coach Sergen said, 'Let’s not go to extra time.' Because he had a flight to Istanbul at 5 PM. The match went into extra time. In the last 15 minutes, I looked, he was not on the bench," had become a topic of discussion.
REVEALED BY MATCH RECORDINGS
Sergen Yalçın strongly criticized the story, stating that it was not true. Additionally, the allegation was proven to be false by match recordings. It was claimed that the situation surrounding Semih Şentürk's departure, which became the focus of reactions, was also influenced by this incident.
