Ali Koç announces the date for the Super Cup final!

Fenerbahçe Sports Club President Ali Koç was a guest on the program "Yeni Bir Sabah" (A New Morning) with İsmail Küçükkaya on Halk TV.

Making statements regarding the sports agenda, Koç said that the Super Cup final between the Süper Lig champion Galatasaray and the Ziraat Turkish Cup winner Fenerbahçe will be played after the local elections to be held on March 31.

"IT IS CERTAIN THAT IT WILL BE PLAYED IN APRIL"

In his statement, Ali Koç said, "It is certain that the Super Cup match will be played in April after the local elections. We are also waiting for a schedule to make our own plans, but a definitive date has not yet come from the TFF."

Highlights from Ali Koç's statements:

"OUR BUS WAS SHOT AT, AND THE PERPETRATOR IS STILL UNKNOWN"

We paid very heavy prices on July 3. Both financially and morally. We are still paying them; what we have experienced in the last 10 years is clear. This stance is more important than anything else. We confronted FETÖ during its most powerful period. No one was by our side then; we stood tall. However, no one is making amends with us. Fenerbahçe was miles ahead of its rivals during that period. I wish there had been a reconciliation process for Fenerbahçe before lawsuits and such were filed. Our bus was shot at, and the perpetrator is still unknown.

"FOOTBALL IN TURKEY IS NOT A SECTOR WHERE CLEAN PEOPLE CAN SURVIVE"

A film or documentary should definitely be made about the July 3 period. Because there is no example of such a thing. Football in Turkey is not a sector where clean people can survive.

"THERE IS GRUMBLING WHEN A GOAL COMES LATE"

The community is fragile; there is a longing for a championship. Even in a year where we have collected the highest points in Fenerbahçe's history, there is grumbling when a goal comes late. We will overcome this with a championship.

"YOU HAVE SEEN WHAT KIND OF SUPPORT SOME CLUBS HAVE BEEN GIVEN"

Fenerbahçe has had 1 championship in the last 13 years. You cannot explain this only with sporting reasons. I am speaking for both the Aziz Yıldırım era and our own era. In some seasons, some clubs were made champions by design. You have seen what kind of support some clubs were given. We believe that football should remain on the pitch.

"GALATASARAY WILL ALSO DROP POINTS"

Again, a part of the community has fallen into pessimism. I tell them to be at ease. More points will be dropped, and our rival will also drop points. We are living our golden age in non-football branches. Fenerbahçe is competing for the top everywhere. Naturally, the disappointment is greater when a championship is missed in these lanes.

"THE OBSTACLES HAVE INCREASED DURING MY PRESIDENCY"

It is time for me to step down as president. I came for 2 terms. There are many obstacles to Fenerbahçe becoming champion. These obstacles have increased during my presidency. There are many stakeholders in the Super Cup incident; they singled us out. I also have new information... While the TFF was reporting this matter to Ankara, they pointed to us. We will get to the bottom of this. That is why I ask our state once again; let this matter be investigated to see who is telling the truth and who is lying.

TRANSFER COMMENTS FOR FERDİ KADIOĞLU

Ferdi is my first transfer from abroad. We bought him for the number ten position. He developed so beautifully... He is happy at Fenerbahçe, but now it is time to write a new story. Ferdi is 24 years old. He is improving with every match. My prediction and thought is that he will set sail for a new story at the end of the season.
