A photo of Sergio Conceiçao, who is expected to become Fenerbahçe's new head coach, taken years ago while he was wearing an Inter shirt, drew attention. The fact that the Portuguese coach appears in the same frame with Emre Belözoğlu and Galatasaray head coach Okan Buruk highlighted the interesting coincidence in the football world.
A striking photo has emerged from the playing years of Sergio Conceiçao, who is claimed to have reached an agreement for Fenerbahçe's head coaching job. The Portuguese coach was seen as a teammate of Emre Belözoğlu and Okan Buruk during the period he played for Italy's Inter. The photo, in which the three names appear in the same frame, has attracted renewed attention with the possibility of Conceiçao taking charge of Fenerbahçe.
YEARS AGO, THEY WORE THE SAME TEAM'S JERSEY
During the period he wore the Inter jersey in his playing career, Sergio Conceiçao shared the same squad as Emre Belözoğlu and Okan Buruk, well-known names in Turkish football. The photo, showing the three players side by side in Inter jerseys, revealed an interesting coincidence after all the years that have passed.
NOW THEY COULD BE RIVALS
Sergio Conceiçao and Okan Buruk, who were teammates at Inter at the time, could this time cross paths in Turkey as rival head coaches. Conceiçao, the former teammate of Okan Buruk, who is at the helm of Galatasaray, will become the head coach of the yellow-navy team if his agreement with Fenerbahçe becomes official.
The possibility that two names who once wore the same jersey will face each other years later at the head of archrivals has made the photo even more striking.
