Aziz Yıldırım’s statement included the following remarks:

“LET THE WINNER ALWAYS BE FENERBAHÇE, AS WE HAVE ALWAYS WISHED”

“To the Great Fenerbahçe Fans,

About three weeks ago, my friends and I set out to manage our beloved club.

Throughout the process, we reached out to thousands of our congress members, listened to their problems, and expressed their feelings.

In yesterday’s ordinary elective congress, Mr. Ali Koç and his administration were elected by the votes of our members. I wholeheartedly wish them success in the new term. Let the winner always be Fenerbahçe, as we have always wished.

I thank all Fenerbahçe associations that have supported us during this process, all our congress members who supported or did not support us, our unparalleled fans worldwide, our volunteer friends who never withheld their efforts, and especially the CHILDREN and the youth.

My friends and I believe that by running as candidates three weeks ago, we have shaken off the stagnation at Fenerbahçe and provided our club with valuable momentum. I hope Fenerbahçe makes good use of this momentum, and we reach the championships we have longed for one by one. We will continue to support our teams as fans of this community.

With the hope that Fenerbahçe’s children will not be saddened,

I greet you all with respect.

Aziz YILDIRIM”
