Fred’s return will bring relief to everyone!
The Brazilian star participated in the entire training session yesterday after a long hiatus, and his status for tomorrow's match against Hatayspor has been determined. Ismail Kartal believes that Fred's comeback will have a positive impact on everyone.
Fenerbahçe won every match Fred played in, except for the Samsunspor game where he got injured, ending in a draw. Ismail Kartal is of the opinion that Fred’s return will boost the performance of attacking players alongside Krunic.
Fred has proven to be a crucial player for Sarı-Lacivertliler, as the team’s overall performance suffered during his absence in two separate periods due to injuries, affecting players like Szymanski, Tadic, and Dzeko negatively.
Significant Difference with Fred!
Fenerbahçe only faced a setback in the match against Samsunspor where Fred got injured and substituted in the 87th minute. Ismail Kartal has eagerly awaited the return of the experienced midfielder since January 21st. Fred, after a long break, trained with the team throughout, completing the session without any issues.
Ismail Kartal’s Plan with Krunic
The Brazilian star is expected to reclaim his spot in the match against Hatayspor tomorrow. Ismail Kartal might surprise by including Fred in the starting eleven despite his lack of recent match practice. Kartal believes Fred’s return will elevate the team’s performance in many aspects. He hopes that Rade Krunic, often criticized, will showcase his true quality when playing alongside Fred as planned from the beginning.
Right on Time
Fred played a crucial role in Fenerbahçe’s high press in the attacking third, ensuring continuity in the team’s attacks. His absence led to a drop in the form of attacking players, especially Szymanski, Tadic, and Dzeko. In summary, as the season enters its busiest period and a critical turn in the league approaches, Fred’s return to the lineup will undoubtedly bring a sigh of relief to Ismail Kartal.
