Speaking to beIN Sports, Okan Buruk made the following statements regarding transfer efforts and the health status of Icardi, who left the game due to injury:
"METEHAN ACHIEVED GREAT SUCCESS"
"We started the match with a goal as a team. We found the first goal with Metehan's beautiful and long pass. We saw great success in all of Metehan's actions."
"WE PLAYED POORLY IN THE LAST HALF HOUR"
"It is a good victory, but we played the last half hour of the match very poorly. After a certain minute, we switched off. Both the opponent and we moved away from game discipline. I did not like that we gave away so many positions towards the end of the match."
"THIS BREAK WILL BE GOOD FOR US"
"Our team's performance in the first half was important. We got the victory we wanted. We have 9 points in 3 matches. This break will be good for us. After that, a more productive league awaits us. When we complete the transfers, there will be a very strong Galatasaray squad."
"ICARDI WILL BE AWAY FROM US FOR A WHILE"
"I spoke with Icardi. He felt it while trying to kick the ball, but it might not be too bad. The initial appearance looked bad, but it might not be something very serious. After we return to Istanbul, he will have an MRI. I don't think it is a very major muscle injury, but he will be away from us for a while. The doctor will tell us the duration of this period."
"WE WANT TO MAKE A QUICK ADDITION TO THE LEFT-BACK POSITION"
"We want to strengthen every area. We are lacking at left-back. Köhn left, and we terminated Dubois's contract. We want to make a quick addition to the left-back position. We will also make clear decisions regarding other positions; we have until the 4th for the European list. We want to finish this transfer by the 4th and then form our full squad."
