Barış Alper Yılmaz: 'I am a natural person'

Barış Alper Yılmaz said, "I am a natural person. I am someone who expresses things as they are. I think people like that. I might even be pushing my own limits to be worthy of them. I really want to give them a good Barış Alper Yılmaz. I don't want people to speak ill of me.

I am already fighting, and I am trying to do more than I can. I just want people to say good things about Barış Alper Yılmaz. If you play for Galatasaray, you have to be careful about everything. It's not something you can do alone. I have a special team, and I am always in communication with them.

I receive a lot of support from them. We are trying to be worthy of Galatasaray here. When you perform poorly, someone else can take your place; we need to know the value of being here. You have to invest in yourself because you are playing for Galatasaray."

Speaking to beIN Sports, Barış Alper added, "Coach Okan is truly very valuable. He can reach out to every footballer. Managing footballers is not always easy. The coach really has a great energy.

Regardless of the time, he never turns us away. His communication is really very good. He has put a lot of effort into me. I thank him very much. I miss Mertens, everyone misses him a lot. Mertens is truly...

He doesn't need to know Turkish, he doesn't need to know the language; he really gives off a very beautiful energy to the other side. Everyone loves him very much and misses him. I have a very special relationship with him. For me, he is like an older brother."
