Statement from Okan Buruk regarding Fernando Muslera!

Galatasaray manager Okan Buruk made statements ahead of the UEFA Europa League second leg match to be played against Sparta Prague.

Here are Okan Buruk's statements...

"We want to win and qualify for the Round of 16. We will put aside the advantage from the first match and focus on this game. We know how much they challenged us in the first leg. We need to be careful both in defense and in attack. We have done good work in our last 3 away games in the league. Our opponent is a team that plays, but Galatasaray is a team that takes the field to win every match. I expect us to perform better than we did in the first leg.

We are not playing tennis; I am not doing this alone. We have been focused on winning since last year. We have a responsibility to our community, and that is to win. Galatasaray takes the field to win every match. This mindset brings records. It has been this way before, and it will be this way in the future. We are experiencing things together. Any success Galatasaray achieves, my name is mentioned because I am at the helm.

Galatasaray fans will flock here. How many spectators we will have becomes clear on match day. We will play against a good team in a great atmosphere. When I faced Sparta Prague as a player, Nedved had done very important things. I hope that as a coach, I will be the winner tomorrow.

Sparta Prague has 3 important absences. Their left-footed player in defense is missing, and they will have 3 right-footed players in playmaking. They will also be unable to use the two players who carry the team's scoring load. These are the most important absences for our opponent.

We are aiming for Aurier and Ziyech to return for the Beşiktaş match. Kaan also has pains, but he continues to play. We are using him sparingly. I do not think there will be any issues regarding Muslera moving forward. Our wish is for him to continue with us, and I hope it will be that way."
