Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk, who defeated Istanbulspor at home in the 3rd week of Ziraat Turkish Cup Group A, made a statement after the match.

In the 3rd week match of Ziraat Turkish Cup Group A, Galatasaray defeated Istanbulspor 3-1 at home.

After the match, the coach of the yellow-reds, Okan Buruk, evaluated the victory.

Here are Buruk’s statements;

“WE ARE THE LEADERS IN THE GROUP”

“Yaser stayed on the field for 90 minutes. The only thing we were upset about was the collision between goalkeeper İsa and Ahmet, other than that the match was clean. We kept the ball in the second half, but we produced less. We wanted to win. We were 9 points away. We are the leader in the group.”

SINGO

“Singo had not played for about 70 days, and Singo became like a transfer for us. Our squad is completed with the 3 new players. I want to focus on this. These problems may occur during the transfer periods, but what matters is our performance on the field.”

“THERE ARE THOSE WHO BREAK THE LIMIT”

“When you make too many transfers, no one gives you trophies. Regarding the transfer, we bought three players. This is our current thought after our last player signed tomorrow. I have to focus on my team now.

There is such a thing as transfer limit, can you break it? There are those who pierce. You can get penalized, it was the Turkish team that got penalized a lot!”

TRANSFER

“It is the last day of the transfer. At the moment, two players have arrived. Two players who will lead us with quality and solve the match. We had a problem there. The load was on certain players. We were having problems with rotation and substitution. We achieved a significant transfer success. We made many searches for the midfield. Half-time transfer is not easy. You cannot get the players you want. Renato, we need to both invest and see for the future. We watched their matches. Hopefully, if the transfer is completed, we will have completed the transfer. Apart from that, we will have completed the transfer at the moment. “We have no transfers. We have expanded our squad. Lemina’s suspension is a disadvantage for us. We want to make the best of the good players we have, the players who have played these matches very well in Europe. We are better in terms of squad size than at the beginning of the season. Our only focus now is on success on the field, both in the league and in Europe.”

“WE MADE AN AGREEMENT WITH CAN ARMANDO”

“An agreement has been reached for Can Armando Güler at the end of the season. Now, negotiations are being held so that he can come.”

“IT IS IN GALATASARAY’S GENES”

“Now we have received important support. Especially when we look at Asprilla’s performance and Noa, players who will really contribute to us have arrived. Renato is also a dynamic young player. These were important for the competition of the squad. We do not want to focus only on transfers. A team that will leave its mark on the league and Europe, which is in Galatasaray’s genes, will emerge.”

VICTOR OSIMHEN

“Victor Osimhen was not a transfer that anyone could make in Türkiye. Don’t misunderstand. It is not my place to protect the management or anyone. I want to tell this as the coach of Galatasaray and as a Galatasaray supporter.”
