Ertuğrul Doğan: The World Is Talking About Trabzonspor

Trabzonspor's 61st ordinary board of directors general assembly was held yesterday. Transfer policies were also on the agenda at the meeting. President Ertuğrul Doğan said the club is now being talked about not only in Turkey but also around the world. Doğan, who noted that Salah wearing the Trabzonspor shirt shows how far the club has come, said Salah is counted among the iconic footballers of the world alongside Messi and Ronaldo. Emphasizing that there is no luxury of making mistakes, Doğan announced that the club will protect its rights and will not step back.

Doğan thanked President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, stating that he gave instructions regarding the allocation of the 102-decare plot of land in Arnavutköy, Istanbul, without leaving them in a dilemma.

Before the general assembly, Trabzonspor's executives had breakfast together. Young fans in particular took an interest in Ertuğrul Doğan, and Doğan posed for photos with his little admirers.
