The warm moments shared from this meeting, which took place late at night, caused a wide stir on social media.
While some social media users interpreted this gesture by Ali Koç as support for Hakan Safi, some fans commented that the meeting added a new dimension to the election atmosphere. While the sincere conversation between Koç and Safi throughout the dinner drew attention, it was claimed that critical topics regarding the club's future were on the table.
On the other hand, Hakan Safi was one of the names included in Ali Koç's board of directors list. This detail further increased the importance of the meeting.
