Trabzonspor issued a statement regarding the matter on the X platform. The statement included the following remarks:

'At the beginning of the season, an agreement was reached with Mr. Şenol Güneş not only for the managerial position but also to utilize his knowledge and experience to develop projects, manage the youth academy and A-team processes, build the Trabzonspor of the future, and take responsibility in areas such as facilities and investments. In this direction, a collaboration aimed at creating a strong institutional structure was planned.

However, the failure to achieve the desired results in the league has deeply saddened our community and necessitated a change in the managerial position.

Work to determine a new manager has begun, and the necessary information will be provided to the public once the process is complete.

Respectfully announced to the public and the great Trabzonspor fans.'
