Ismail Kartal made statements after the match where Fenerbahçe defeated Adanaspor 6-0 in the Turkish Cup.
Praising Krunic’s performance, Ismail Kartal also touched upon the topics of Caglar Soyuncu and the transfer agenda.
Ismail Kartal’s statements are as follows:
“This evening, we wanted to advance to the next round by defeating Adanaspor at our home. We achieved a beautiful, distinctive victory. We are happy to advance to the Round of 16.
In this match, we fielded players who had fewer chances. In the end, all our players did their best. I wish success to Adanaspor in their future matches.
Every player wearing the jersey with stripes is the most valuable player for us. Within the team, everyone shows great respect to each other.
“I thank our president very much”
We needed to act early in the transfer window. We had injured players, and we are competing in three different competitions. I thank our president very much for this. They started to adapt to the team early.
The depth of the squad was important because we will play more matches in the second half.
Krunic’s performance
In my opinion, although it was his first match, Krunic had a good performance. He started as the number 6 and then moved to the center-back position, where he also did a good job.
“Maybe we can make 1 more transfer”
With the 2 transfers we have made so far, we have found our balance. Maybe in the coming days, there could be one more transfer, but we are not conditioning ourselves for it.
Çağlar Söyüncü
We have not made a definite decision regarding Çağlar Söyüncü and departures; we will evaluate it over time.”
