Doğan: The World Is Talking About Trabzonspor, and There Is a Land Plan in Istanbul

Trabzonspor President Ertuğrul Doğan spoke at the club's Ordinary Divan Board meeting. Doğan said the transformation had taken place earlier than planned and that a quick and successful transition process had been carried out. He thanked the technical staff and the players, and said the footballers had put up a great fight.

Doğan said the club is now talked about not only in Turkey but across the world. Stressing that the players who were sold and transferred have increased this interest, Doğan said the footballers are happy in Trabzon and speak about the club everywhere they go. He also added that the management has no room for error in any area.

Touching on scouting work, Doğan said the club works with teams in 4 to 5 different regions that are unaware of each other. He noted that 4 to 5 reports are prepared for each player and presented to the head coach, and said the club has built a system and is maintaining it.

Addressing the need for land in Istanbul, Doğan announced that, on the instruction of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the allocation of a 102-decare plot in Arnavutköy has begun. He said the management has planned two facilities to meet the needs of the next 50 years, and that these facilities will be built in both Trabzon and Istanbul.

Doğan said the club is determined to protect its rights. He said the club has no problems with anyone, but that if someone causes a problem for the club, it will do what is necessary. He stressed that the club will not step back.
