While the identity of Fenerbahçe's new head coach is being eagerly anticipated, a new development has occurred. According to claims, President Ali Koç and the management have decided on a foreign coach. The yellow-navy team has reached an agreement with Italian coach Domenico Tedesco. An announcement is expected to be made shortly.
THERE WERE RUMORS ABOUT İSMAİL KARTAL
Initially, Fenerbahçe was close to an agreement with İsmail Kartal, but this idea changed, and it was decided to sign with Domenico Tedesco. After the words of Sporting Director Devin Özek, "The transfer period went well for us; we were able to implement many things. We were also lucky in some transfers. Now we need to find a coach suitable for this project. Then we will have a successful period," Fenerbahçe approached the end of negotiations with coach Domenico Tedesco.
GÖKHAN GÖNÜL WILL BE HIS ASSISTANT
According to the news from Yağız Sabuncuoğlu, the Turkish assistant considered for Domenico Tedesco's team at Fenerbahçe is Gökhan Gönül. He will also be included in the team shortly.
WHO IS TEDESCO?
The most significant feature that highlights the 39-year-old coach is that he has played attacking football at every club he has worked with. The young coach, who adopts the 4-2-3-1 system, has expressed his desire to work at the yellow-navy club to the Fenerbahçe management. Tedesco stands out as a name that has achieved quick results both in the clubs he has worked with and in the development process of the Belgium National Team. He is a successful coach who did not see defeat for 16 months with the Belgium National Team and led his team to advance from the group stage undefeated in EURO 2024.
EXPERIENCED DESPITE HIS YOUNG AGE
The young coach, who started his career at Erzgebirge Aue, became the youngest head coach in Schalke 04's history with his performance and led Schalke to the quarter-finals of the Champions League. He then became the youngest head coach in the history of Spartak Moscow. Returning to Germany, Tedesco, during his time at Leipzig, won the DFB-Pokal while the team was in 11th place and finished the league in 4th place, earning the right to participate in the Champions League. With his performance, he also became the youngest head coach of the Belgium National Team, achieving an impressive performance with an average of 2.75 goals per match.
