Doğan: We will bring in the necessary names at the winter break

Trabzonspor President Ertuğrul Doğan spoke to TRT Spor about the club's winter break transfer plans. Doğan said they did not start the season well, but that a new era has begun with Thomas Reis, and he thanked the technical staff and the players. He added that he hopes to come away with wins from the Hearts and Rizespor matches as well.

Doğan said the reports prepared by the domestic and international scouting teams have been passed on to Reis and his staff, that feedback has been received from them, and that the club will consider every request from the coach. The president stressed that they will sign the necessary player, saying this remark was misunderstood and that the rival clubs also have to be willing to release the player. He added that they will push the terms.

Doğan noted that they have names in mind but will not disclose them without Reis's permission. Drawing attention to the importance of team chemistry, the president said a structure that is going well should not be disrupted. He said Fabinho, who played for the Brazil National Team at the last World Cup, is not yet fully ready and will get even better. He made a similar assessment of Andre Onana.

Doğan described Muhammed Salah as a player on the level of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, and recalled that close to 30 thousand fans came to the airport and that a signing ceremony was held in a full stadium.
