The question of who will be Fenerbahçe's new head coach remains a subject of interest. Management is continuing to work on the candidates without rushing. President Aziz Yıldırım has given full authority in the search to executive Cihan Kamer and football director Oğuz Çetin. Priority is reportedly being given to foreign names.

It was reported that Yıldırım told his colleagues: "First, meet with the foreign head coaches and let's get this done." The management is expected to meet again today to evaluate the candidates on the agenda. The goal is to reach an agreement with a foreign coach before the international break.

National Team head coach Sergen Yalçın is working to determine the squad for the matches against Belgium on November 12 and France on November 15. Yalçın, who took up his post on October 22, said he had held one-on-one video calls with all the players and that no one had failed to get back to him or been left out of the conversation.

Yalçın said his earlier statements had not caused any problems among the players and that they were somewhat for show, for the cameras. He said he wanted Kenan Yıldız to join the squad despite his injury and that the player would come gladly. He also added that lowering morale before important matches benefits no one.

At Trabzonspor, the target has grown with Thomas Reis. The team that won the first 6 official matches Reis coached also won against Galatasaray (4-0) and Beşiktaş (2-0). Gaziantep FK, Freiburg and Alanya are the next opponents, and the aim is to get 9 out of 9. At Galatasaray, Okan Buruk is preparing a different starting XI for the match against Konyaspor, and it has been learned that he will make significant changes to the squad with the Champions League match against Stuttgart on November 3 in mind.
