I will also welcome them with hospitality. Of course, I have a team whose colors I am currently fighting for, but for me, the players of my country's team are always valuable. I do not make any distinctions.
They are always welcome. But when we step onto the pitch, we will also fight to win. I have friends there already; we talk to all of them. I hope it will be a match without injuries, accidents, or trouble. I am also sure that the Galatasaray community will welcome me well there."
