Emre Belözoğlu, the coach of MKE Ankaragücü, provided clear statements regarding players linked with Fenerbahçe.
Fenerbahçe’s Mert Hakan Yandaş and Lincoln Henrique
Naming Mert Hakan Yandaş and Lincoln Henrique, Emre Belözoğlu stated, “Our president and our football branch manager Yılmaz Bal are also involved in transfers at least as much as I am. I haven’t had a meeting with Fenerbahçe’s Mert Hakan, but there have been inter-club consultations. We are looking for a central midfielder. There is nothing conclusively settled yet. We want to bring in players who won’t disrupt the energy of this group and will appreciate Ankaragücü when they come here.”
‘Lincoln is a valuable player but…’
“Lincoln has been injured for a long time, but he is a valuable player. Clubs are in talks. Lincoln is a valuable player, but if he has played a bit more, my preference would be towards that side. Currently, there is no agreed-upon player with Fenerbahçe.”
