Samsunspor Sees Konyaspor Match as a Turning Point

Press Spokesperson Suat Çakır made a statement at the Nuri Asan Facilities for Samsunspor, which has lost eight consecutive Süper Lig matches and slipped into the relegation zone. Çakır said the team sees the Konyaspor match on Saturday as a turning point.

Çakır recalled that the team got an unexpected result against Başakşehir last week and left the field defeated. He said Emre Kılınç has recovered from his injury and has started training with the team. He stated that if Kılınç is fit by Saturday, the head coach will play him. He added that Fatih Kaya and Celil Yüksel are currently injured and will not be able to play this week.

Çakır stressed that Konyaspor are currently ranked above them in the league and said the team must win. He recalled that no points have been taken in the three weeks since the head coach took over. He said that after the first two matches, four players had to leave the squad, and the current squad is made up of young players. He said they want to collect as many points as possible before the mid-season break and, according to Yüksel Yıldırım's statement, reinforcements will be made during the break.

Also highlighting the importance of fans, Çakır announced this week's ticket prices: 55 lira for the tribune behind the goal and 355 lira for the other stands. Saying that Samsun is a sports city, he said they expect fans to fill the stadium and boost the team's morale.
