The president of the Turkish Football Federation, Nihat Ozdemir, was an important statement for the broadcasters. Özdemir’s prominent words are as follows:
EXPENDITURE LIMITS
“Before the season started, we determined the calculations on how to calculate the team spending limits and discussed it with the clubs. Based on the values we declared, the clubs gave us their own balance sheets. We will inform you about the new spending limits. spending of Kasımpaşa, Fenerbahçe and other clubs from today and they will be able to issue their licenses. A new sponsorship. If there is income, if there is sale of footballers, join Europe, we will inform the spending limits of the teams taking into account all income .
“OUR TEAMS WILL NOT TAKE A PENALTY FROM UEFA”
We are working hard on Financial Fair Play. Unfortunately, Trabzonspor had a penalty for 2016. Trabzonspor correctly applied the CAS, but as a result, the penalty did not change. I think that thanks to the spending limits, our clubs will no longer be sanctioned by UEFA. We believe they will fix your debt in a few years.
“THE RESERVE LEAGUE IS NOT POSSIBLE”
Only Beşiktaş, Göztepe and Trabzonspor applied for the Reserve League. It is not possible for us to play the Reserve League with three teams. We decided to establish a reserve league according to the request of the Club Association. With the state of the league, we determined the prizes for the first, second and third, but only 3 teams applied, although we set a limit until September 7. We cannot apply this under these conditions.
“WE COMMIT THE NEW SEASON TO HEALTH”
The league was named Süleyman Seba for the first time. In the last season, we had Cemil Usta. We have discussed this topic in depth. We thought about putting a name for our healthcare professionals who fought for us during the period of the pandemic. Regardless, we will dedicate this season to our health professionals.
“IF THERE IS A DROP IN THE CASE, WE WILL RECEIVE AN ASSISTANT”
We told the Minister of Health that we wanted to get around 30 percent of the audience. Our Minister of Health declared that this is not possible in September and stated that we can switch to this order in October. We, as the board of directors, unanimously decided to recruit fans starting in October. Then, after the increase in the number of cases and deaths, we received a suggestion to play without an audience from the Ministry of Health. As direction, we made the decision without spectators until the end of the first part. We saw that the numbers are improving and in this case we can consider taking the audience back without waiting for the end of the season. If the decrease is achieved, we consult our Ministry of Health again, and if not 30 percent, we can decide to have 20 or 10 spectators.
“WE THINK TO CONTINUE WITH BEIN”
“Our conversations with beIN continue. We also want a long contract with the management of beIN Sports. We plan to sign in a few days and continue on our way again.”
COMMENT OF THE NATIONAL TEAM
The pandemic intervened and our National Team did not play a game for a period of 10 months. We had some shortcomings. We really couldn’t play well against Hungary, but we recovered in the second half. The most important goal of Şenol is to build a team by seeing the players who were unable to play during this period. Our teacher told us that some players came with 2 days of training. Now there are 3 games against our National Team. I think we will get better performance now.
“I DON’T LIKE IT WITH 21 TEAMS”
We will start the league with 21 teams. After 4 teams relegate, TFF 1. There will be 3 league teams. Thus, we will continue next season with 20 teams. Then we will review whether or not we will reduce this number at the end of the 20-team season. I don’t regret team 21’s decision. 7 teams wanted relegation lifted and we said it wouldn’t happen then. Then several teams applied for us. For example, Malatya claimed that 2-3 players did not return after the pandemic and that they were unable to make a transfer because the transfer period was not closed. We also removed the descent.
SUPER CUP IN DOHA
We will play 8 games on weekdays in the new year. Almost every day of the week it will be game day. As you all know, we will play the Super Cup in Doha, the capital of Qatar. Then the winner of the match will play the winner of the Qatar Super Cup. We generate significant income from here. Every time we make a decision at TFF, we consult with the Ministry of Health and the Science Board and even with our Ministry of Youth and Sports. We consult each situation, but of course, the final decision is always in the hands of TFF.
“IT WILL BE FINAL ASSISTANCE”
I hope the Champions League final will be played with spectators in Istanbul. It will be played on the date of the conquest of our Istanbul on May 29, 2021 and our stadium is ready. Have a good ending and I hope it has an audience. We have a project to block the wind. Afterwards, our National Team can play there. Even if we receive a request from Fatih Karagümrük, we always accept it.
“MY COACHES CANNOT HAVE OWNER”
At my outer border, my target audience is the club presidents and management. The technical directors cannot be my interlocutor on this matter. If the teachers go and send their wishes to the club presidents, they can deliver them to us from there. Such a meeting can only come to light in the way that Şenol Hodja coordinates. As far as I know, Mehmet Sepil is on duty in the Club Association and has no desire to leave.
“I HAVE NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THE RESIGNATION”
I never thought of resignation. During my tenure, I will try to serve Turkish football as much as I can. Difficult days have always come to us. The economic problems and the pandemic coincided with us, we could not see the comfortable face. Still, we will try to carry on this business as much as we can.
