Fenerbahçe Presidential Candidate Hakan Bilal Kutlualp, when asked, "If Aziz Yıldırım announces his candidacy, will you unite, or will you continue to be a candidate?" replied, "I have set aside my personal ego. I want everyone else to do the same. Let whatever is best and most correct for Fenerbahçe happen. I am speaking without making any distinctions between candidates. I truly do not see a light at the end of the tunnel. Therefore, anything can happen. As long as it is in the interest of Fenerbahçe," he said.
Hakan Bilal Kutlualp met with fans at a hotel in Ankara and answered their questions.
Stating that there is a lot of work to be done but that no one can do it alone, Kutlualp said, "At the point we have reached, even magic is not enough. If this community does not come together in every sense, our job will be difficult."
Expressing that Fenerbahçe needs to establish a scouting team, Kutlualp stated that they would also prioritize the youth academy if they were to take office.
Stating that the bond between the fans and the club needs to be improved, Kutlualp pointed out that sponsorships are also important for Fenerbahçe to grow even further.
Stating that they would not have any financial expectations from the associations, Kutlualp emphasized that they would also prioritize digitalization if they were to take office.
"I DO NOT SEE A LIGHT"
Hakan Bilal Kutlualp responded to a fan's question, "If Aziz Yıldırım becomes a candidate, would you want to act together with him, or are you saying 'I am a candidate until the end?'" as follows:
"Aziz Yıldırım is an important factor at Fenerbahçe. When Aziz Yıldırım enters the election, he will definitely talk to me. Because he was the one who last invited me to his boat, and we went together. Whatever is in the interest of Fenerbahçe, that is what it is. I have set aside my personal ego. I want everyone else to do the same. Let whatever is best and most correct for Fenerbahçe happen. I am speaking without making any distinctions between candidates. I truly do not see a light at the end of the tunnel. Therefore, anything can happen. As long as it is in the interest of Fenerbahçe."
