Fenerbahçe, which has been unable to end its 10-year championship drought in the Super Lig, finished the 2023-2024 season in second place with 99 points.

Following the conclusion of the season, all eyes in the Yellow-Navy community turned to the ordinary general assembly with elections.

Ali Koç, who had previously announced he would not be a candidate, reversed his decision and became a candidate once again. His opponent is the former president, Aziz Yıldırım.

As the presidential election at Fenerbahçe approaches, both candidates continue to make statements that spark significant discussion.

ALI KOÇ'S FETÖ INSINUATION AGAINST Aziz Yıldırım

Speaking at the Association of Lawyer Fenerbahçe Fans in Ankara as part of his election campaign, Ali Koç made a striking statement about former president Yıldırım following a comment from a congress member who asked, "Do those who support Aziz Yıldırım want the system to continue?" Koç stated:

"I didn't say anything like that. I didn't say it to keep the system going. I said the hostility towards us is about the struggle we waged against the system and the values we defend. But let me say this as well. I am trying to choose my words carefully. President Aziz has had more contradictory statements regarding the organization leader after 2013. My line is the same; it might be wrong, it might be right, but my line is the same. I don't go back and forth like this. We have a line. President Aziz is someone who attaches great importance to republican values. We also went through his training. Fenerbahçe also has a stance on these issues in its DNA. Unfortunately, over time, this stance of ours was dragged into politics. Because republican values have become a material for political debate. Not for us. We are not doing politics or anything like that."

CAUSED REACTIONS

These remarks by Ali Koç targeting Aziz Yıldırım became a hot topic on social media. Some Fenerbahçe fan accounts shared the debate Koç had with Rasim Ozan Kütahyalı in 2022 regarding Aziz Yıldırım, reacting by saying, "Ali Koç has made the same statement today that he reacted to when Rasim Ozan Kütahyalı said it in 2022."

Rasim Ozan Kütahyalı, quoting the post in question, stated, "Well, Ali Koç, you came around to what I said two years later..."
