State of emergency at Galatasaray after Samsunspor defeat: The word 'championship' is banned

Galatasaray is preparing for one of the most critical matches of the season. A complete silence prevails in the team ahead of the clash against Antalyaspor. Having suffered a heavy 4-1 defeat to Samsunspor in their last league match, the yellow-reds have effectively gone into lockdown to avoid a similar surprise this time. From the technical staff to the kit managers and the highest level of management, the mention of the word 'championship' has been banned within the club.

It has been learned that President Dursun Özbek has explicitly instructed executives, saying, 'No talking throughout this week.' On the grounds that talk of a championship could negatively affect motivation, executives have also suspended transfer negotiations for one week. The players, continuing their training at the facilities in Kemerburgaz, are saving all their energy for the match to be played this weekend.

On the other hand, it was stated that President Özbek provided a final morale boost to the players and technical staff, saying, 'We have only one match left. Let's win it, and then we will celebrate the championship together.'
