Notable detail in the meeting! President Erdogan applied a different tariff only to Acun.

Fenerbahçe Club President Ali Koç and board members visited President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan at Beştepe. President Erdoğan, who hosted the Fenerbahçe delegation at the Presidential Complex, congratulated the yellow and navy club for their achievements in his speech.

"WHAT'S UP?"

The moment that stood out in the meeting was President Erdoğan asking Acun Ilıcalı, "What's up?" during the handshake. In the footage, it can be seen that Erdoğan shakes hands with everyone before Acun, saying "Welcome."

GIFT FROM ALI KOÇ TO ERDOĞAN

Fenerbahçe President Ali Koç presented President Erdoğan with a jersey signed by the players and a painting called "Vakt-i Fener" as a gift. The painting "Vakt-i Fener" showcases unforgettable moments from Fenerbahçe Sports Club's history, including Atatürk's photograph and legendary figures and memories from Fenerbahçe's history.

Highlights from Erdoğan's statements:

"I am pleased to host the esteemed management of Fenerbahçe Sports Club at the Presidential Complex. With its 117-year history, millions of fans, valuable athletes it has raised, and its achievements that have gone down in history, Fenerbahçe is one of the pride of Turkish sports. Fenerbahçe, which has a history embedded in it, continues to be a source of pride for its fans and millions of people who support it today. Like our other clubs, we have supported Fenerbahçe in all its needs, and we have always been proud and delighted with Fenerbahçe's achievements. In the future, Fenerbahçe will continue to raise our flag with the successes it achieves, making us proud. I would like to emphasize the following point here. The way to achieve these successes is not only through financial means. It is necessary to raise the quality, popularity, and brand value of our leagues, as well as the level of fair play and competition in the matches played. I always remind our sports clubs of this. We need to leave behind the petty arguments and tense atmosphere that cast a shadow over our sport and present a football feast to the audience in the new season. Especially in the current period, we need this.

"WE NEED THE UNIFYING POWER OF SPORTS"

While we are surrounded by a ring of fire, we need to understand each other more, listen more, and empathize. We need to enlarge our common ground, not our differences. We need the unifying power of sports. We expect maximum sensitivity from all our teams, managers, and athletes in this regard.

"I TRY TO WATCH THE MATCHES"

Dear guests, as always, I closely follow Fenerbahçe and try to watch their matches whenever I have the opportunity. Fenerbahçe, which started the season earlier due to the qualifying matches in Europe, continues to reflect its dynamism on the field successfully. We would have liked to watch Fenerbahçe in the Champions League, with its new coach and strengthened squad, continuing its undefeated streak in the league. But unfortunately, we were eliminated in an unlucky way. I believe that Fenerbahçe will make significant progress in the upcoming Europa League, which will start next week. I sincerely wish success to Fenerbahçe and other clubs in European matches. I congratulate Mr. Ali Koç, who was re-elected as the club president in the 90th ordinary congress held in June, and the board of directors, and I wish each of you superior success from God."
