Erden Timur: 'I did not say he sent it to Ali Koç'

Galatasaray Sportif A.Ş. Deputy Chairman Erden Timur made a flash statement to sports writer Levent Tüzemen.

In his statement, Erden Timur said, "I did not say 'Lale Orta sent footage to Ali Koç.' I said, 'It is being said that she sent it, let the entries and exits be investigated.'"

Following these statements, Ali Koç had used the following expressions: "An incident of sending footage in this manner absolutely did not happen. But the real issue here is how they can voice this lie so easily. Because they say, 'there is a record, we know the incident'; if these records or footage exist, who is leaking them to Erden Timur? If this leaking incident exists, are those who leaked it the ones planning this setup with Erden Timur?"

TFF ALSO RESPONDED TO THESE STATEMENTS

The TFF responded to this claim as follows: "VAR footage is sent raw and simultaneously from the live broadcast vehicle to the broadcaster and the TFF VAR room. Therefore, all footage available in the VAR room can also be with the broadcaster at the same time. What is confidential is not the footage, but the conversations between the referees on the field and the referees working in the VAR room.

The allegation that the then-MHK President sent VAR footage to a Club President was referred to the Ethics Committee by a decision taken by the TFF Board of Directors on 18.10.2023; the committee has initiated the relevant investigation, and the process is ongoing."
