Berke Özer Breaks His Silence and Describes the Montella Era

Berke Özer, the 26-year-old goalkeeper who plays for Lille, spoke to beIN SPORTS. Özer said he had met with Sergen Yalçın, the new head coach of the A National Team, before, and that the coach was by his side in their conversation today as well. He said that having someone stand by you, rather than focusing only on performance, is important for a footballer.

Özer said he wants to return to the national team and has told the head coach that he is ready to do whatever is expected of him. He stressed that the final decision belongs to the coach.

Speaking about the past period with the national team, Özer argued that things have been written about him that do not reflect the truth. He said that whatever happens, he will not talk about this process, and that he has stayed silent even though it has harmed him. He said he has stayed out of the debates and supports the technical staff. He expressed hope that he will return to wearing the national team jersey.
