Transfer message to Galatasaray fans from Okan Buruk: We will address our shortcomings

Galatasaray drew 3-3 with Rennes in a match played as part of their new season preparations. The yellow-reds have managed only one victory in their last four friendly matches, and head coach Okan Buruk made assessments following the game.

Stating that they preferred to play against stronger teams rather than easier opponents during the preparation period, Buruk noted that Rennes served as an important test in this regard. The experienced coach emphasized that the team is not yet fully ready, saying, "Our players are not 100 percent ready. It would be a fantasy to expect 100 percent performance."

"WE WILL BE MAKING TRANSFERS"

Despite this, Buruk expressed his satisfaction with his players' desire and concentration. Pointing out that the team's preparation process is important for their seasonal goals, Buruk said that this performance could lead them to a more successful season.

Addressing the transfer expectations of Galatasaray fans, Okan Buruk stated that there is a common will within the club on this matter. Buruk remarked, "We will be making transfers. I am saying it, our president is saying it, our executives are saying it. Transfers are a common point for all of us."

Expressing that he understands the fans' desire to see reinforcements as soon as possible, Buruk said that good-faith work is being carried out during the transfer process. The yellow-red coach also emphasized that Galatasaray should be supported.

"HAVE NO DOUBTS"

Stating that the squad is of high quality but that new players need to be added to the team, Buruk sent a message to the fans, saying, "Let them not worry at all, we will address our shortcomings. Let no one have any doubts."

Touching on the new season and Champions League goals, Buruk said that Galatasaray will start the season strongly. Buruk concluded his remarks by saying, "We will build a good squad. We will have a good year. Let there be no question marks."
