Ahead of the Galatasaray-Fenerbahçe derby to be played in the 9th week of the Trendyol Süper Lig, a notable claim regarding the president of the yellow-navy club, Aziz Yıldırım, has come to the fore. It has been alleged that Yıldırım will not follow the match, which will take place at RAMS Park on Monday, October 26, at 21:30, from the stadium.
While both teams continue their preparations ahead of the match to be officiated by referee Atilla Karaoğlan, the claim that Yıldırım will not be in the protocol stands has sparked debate in the sports community. The close interest the Fenerbahçe President has shown in his team's matches since the beginning of the season has made this claim even more noteworthy.
It is noted that Yıldırım has watched many of Fenerbahçe's matches from the stands this season, including away games in the Süper Lig and Europe, and that he has only been absent from his team's side in one match to date. For this reason, the decision that has come to the agenda for the Galatasaray away game has become one of the prominent headlines ahead of the derby.
Aziz Yıldırım, in a statement he previously made at the High Council Board Meeting, emphasized that he trusts his team, stating, "We will beat Galatasaray and Liverpool as well."
Before the derby, Galatasaray sits at the top of the Süper Lig with 19 points, while Fenerbahçe is three points behind the leader with 16 points. The encounter between the two arch-rivals holds critical importance in terms of the points balance in the championship race.
