''I WILL ANNOUNCE A SPECIAL BONUS''
In a social media post, Yıldırım said, "Dear Samsunspor Community, I am addressing you from El Salvador: I watched the match in my hotel room with my colleagues and I was as devastated as you. I want our community to remain calm. Trust me. I did not bring this team to the Champions League, but I guarantee that we will support each other while playing in the Champions League.
Everything necessary for the success of this team will be done within the available means. No one should have any doubt about that! We have reached an agreement to extend our coach Thomas Reis's contract for another 2 years. The new contract will be mutually signed during the mid-season. We have agreed with him on our club's future goals and new transfers. We will solve everything step by step. He told us that success does not come in a day. We will move towards our goals with steady steps. Please relax and do not create unnecessary pressure on the players.
I have no doubt that this team will do what is necessary until the mid-season. We will succeed together. Together we are a family. Now the target is the Mainz match. I have changed my work schedule in Latin America. I will fly from El Salvador to Frankfurt, Germany, on Wednesday morning to be with our team. Before the Mainz match, I plan to hold a motivational meeting with the entire team by uniting and making the necessary warnings. I will also announce a special bonus to the team to win this match and continue in the top 8 for the cup," he stated.
